The Chicago Fire FC have revealed additional renderings and details of their upcoming stadium within The 78. Located between West 13th and 14th Streets, the stadium is set to finally anchor the long-stalled megadevelopment. The project is being led by the team in partnership with The 78’s developer, Related Midwest, with architecture firm Gensler responsible for the design.
The City of Chicago has officially selected 1Fifteen at Michigan Station as the winner of the Roseland Michigan Avenue RFQ. The selection comes nearly three years after the RFQ was initially issued in 2022 under the Invest South/West initiative. The development will replace a large vacant lot at the corner of Michigan Avenue and E 115th Street.
Initial details have been revealed for the new home of Chicago Fire FC within The 78. Located on the northern half of the site, the stadium will create a permanent home for the team, which relocated to Soldier Field from Bridgeview in recent years. Efforts for the mixed-use development are being led by the team’s owner, Joe Mansueto, and Related Midwest.
A demolition permit has been issued for the single-story building at 3601 West Chicago Avenue in Humboldt Park. The permit comes through more than two months after a new construction permit was issued for The Ave INVEST South/West residential development at this location, the southwest corner of Chicago and Central Park Avenues. The former home of the West Humboldt Park Neighborhood Housing Services of Chicago offices, it was permitted for demolition on May 21. Taylor Excavating is the demo contractor, at a reported cost per the permit of $35,000.
The Chicago Community Development Commission has approved TIF funding for a new phase of the Southbridge development at 3 E 23rd Street in the Near South Side. Dubbed Phase 1C, the new tower will rise at the intersection with S State Street. Like the first two phases across the street, it is also being developed by The Community Builders.
