The Chicago Plan Commission has approved the revised design for 1000M, a planned residential skyscraper at 1000 S Michigan Avenue in South Loop. Fronting S Michigan Avenue, the project site is an infill site between E 9th Street and E 11 Street. Currently a stalled construction site, the development already has caissons in the ground. Time Equities and JK Equities are the developers behind the project.
Construction has been completed on the renovation of 150 apartments at Prairie Shores at 2801-3001 S Martin Luther King Drive. Located on a 20-acre site in Bronzeville, the five-tower complex spans from E 28th Street to E 31st Street. Developed from 1957 to 1961, the project was purchased in 2019 by developers Golub & Company and Farpoint Development.
Final exterior touches remain near the base of St. Regis Chicago (formerly Vista Tower), a 101-story mixed-use skyscraper at 375 E Wacker Drive in Lakeshore East. Developed by Magellan Group, the tower reaches 1,191 feet in height, claiming the second spot in Chicago YIMBY’s end-of-year countdown and garnering “supertall” status at over 984 feet.
Construction is nearing completion on phase one of the Ogden Commons development in North Lawndale. Located on a larger development site, the new 10-acre, mixed-use project is bounded by W Ogden Avenue, S Washtenaw Avenue, S Talman Avenue, S Rockwell Street, and W 13th Street. Phase one is located at 2652 W Ogden Avenue, between S Washtenaw Avenue and S Talman Avenue.
Leasing has begun at the recently completed mixed-use development, dubbed Westerly, at 740 N Aberdeen Street in River West. The Westerly is located on a corner lot at the intersection of N Aberdeen Street and N Ogden Avenue. The Chicago CTA L station, serviced by the Blue Line can be accessed within a one-minute walk from the site. The 56 and 66 CTA bus routes can be accessed at the intersection of N Milwaukee Avenue, N Ogden Avenue, and W Chicago Avenue, also a one-minute walk from the site.
