Renderings have been revealed for a pair of upcoming South Loop projects that have been in the works for a few years. Located at 1630, 1700, and 1730 S Wabash Avenue, we’ve only seen elevations of one of these as the others are set to rise as-of-right. All three proposals are being led by CMK Companies, who updated their site with the images.
The first few levels of exterior glass have been installed on 1717 Michigan, the South Loop residential building from CMK Companies formerly known as 1723 South Michigan. The construction site is also notable for what it doesn’t have: a tower crane. That’s been taken down now that the building is topped out. The construction hoist at the south end of the structure will do the rest of the heavy lifting from here on out.
The first piles were driven into the ground at 1010 South Wells Street in the South Loop on Thursday, marking the beginning of the Riverline residential development. Eschewing caissons, those piles will provide the foundation for this 21-story, 386-unit building from CMK Properties. 1010 South Wells is the first, and northernmost, parcel to be developed for the multi-structure plan.
Renderings have now been revealed for the mixed-use proposal at 1010 S Wells Street in the South Loop. Earlier this week we covered when the project received its full building permit, with scanned drawings of its elevations being the only look we have had at the tower which received a major design change from its original renderings nearly a decade ago.
The residential tower at 1723 South Michigan Avenue in the South Loop has topped out at 12 stories. While the 10 upper levels contain 149 rental units, the two-story podium will hold 89 parking spaces and ground-level retail space.
