Caisson drilling can be seen at the site of a new 23-story mixed-use building at 808 N Cleveland Avenue in Near North Side. The 284-foot-tall edifice will further expand Downtown’s density northwestward, given its location directly across Chicago Avenue from the northern edge of River North.
Extended funding for the redevelopment of the remaining parcels of the former Cabrini-Green homes has been approved by the Community Development Commission in Near North Side. The first of the two separate vacant parcels just west of downtown, sits north on the corner of N Larrabee Street and N Clybourn Avenue, replacing the recently demolished Near North Career High School. The second parcel just south of the first sits on the northeast corner of W Division Street and N Halstead Street next to a Target that was developed on former housing property as well.
A foundation and partial superstructure permit has been issued for a new 23-story high rise at 808 N Cleveland Avenue in Near North Side. The nearly 300,000-square-foot mixed-use building will replace a vacant lot on the block bound by Cambridge, Chicago, and Cleveland Avenues.
The Chicago Committee on Zoning has approved rezoning for a new residential development at 547 W Oak Street in Near North Side. Developer Brinshore-Michaels Development, LLC is teaming up with Pappageorge Haymes Architects to bring a new apartment building to an empty lot at the corner of W Oak Street and N Larrabee Street. Located on the south end of the former Cabrini-Green area, the project will benefit from being located near the new Halsted Pointe development and Sterling Bay’s recently renovated 600 West Chicago Avenue.
Final touches are underway for a two-story commercial addition at 44 E Walton Street in Near North Side. The new wing’s main entrance will be at 937 N Rush Street, and will welcome shoppers to a new venue for Italian fashion brand Brunello Cucinelli.
