A pending permit in the Chicago Data Portal dated July 22nd could be a sign of the residential tower at 410 South Wabash coming back to life. The South Loop project underwent site prep and had caissons sunk into the ground back in 2021 but has been dormant since then.
The residential tower at 626 South Wabash in the South Loop has progressed to the underside of the second level. The core is at the second story of what will eventually be a 19-story building with 164 dwelling units. That progress is courtesy of general contractor Clark Construction, their concrete contractor Adjustable Concrete, and the tower crane they erected at the site in June.
Clark Construction has erected their tower crane at 626 South Wabash in the South Loop, while construction of the new residential tower’s foundation continues. Progress is moving along quickly now, a stark contrast to the delay that saw the site sit idle after the caisson and full permits were issued back in 2022.
Major funding has been secured for the mixed-use development at 626 S Wabash Avenue in the South Loop. Located mid-block between E. Harrison Street and E. Balbo Drive, the project has undergone various design changes and recently broke ground. The development is being led by DAC Developments and Melrose Ascension.
A tower crane permit was issued on April 23 for the residential development at 626 South Wabash Avenue in the South Loop. While that was coming through, general contractor Clark Construction and the crew from Thatcher Foundations were busy drilling and filling caissons for the 19-story tower permitted way back in 2022.
