Caissons were permitted Friday to get construction started on the residential tower at 370 North Morgan in the Fulton Market District. This is the second permit issued for the property, with the tower crane permit coming through on the final day of January. The application was filed on July 29, 2024. Skender is the general contractor, with McHugh Concrete as the concrete contractor and operator of the tower crane.
The new construction permit was issued on January 31 for the tower crane that will build 370 North Morgan in the Fulton Market District. While that doesn’t necessarily mean construction will be get started in the immediate future, it’s a good sign that activity could begin soon. Skender will be the general contractor; as the concrete contractor, McHugh Concrete will oversee tower crane operation.
Plans are advancing for the mixed-use development at 640 W Randolph Street in West Loop Gate as permits have been applied for in order to commence construction. Originally announced over two years ago, the project is being led by Vista Property Group who also built the mostly fully leased 609 W Randolph nearby.
The former Fox Deluxe Foods building has been demolished at 370 North Morgan Street in the Fulton Market District. That clears the way for developer Vista Property Group to get started on the 32-story 370 North Morgan. They don’t plan to break ground until the first quarter of 2025 though, so expect to see this lot vacant for a couple months before activity flares up again.
The first step in the construction of a new residential tower at 370 North Morgan Street in Fulton Market has been taken, as crews begin demolition of the Fox Deluxe Foods building on the site. Crews from Skender and Heneghan Wrecking started prepping the site at the beginning of the month, and the teardown began immediately. A demo permit for the property was issued by the City of Chicago on the first of October.
