Caissons Permitted For 91 Units At 4006 North Sheridan Road In Uptown

7:30 am on April 5, 2026 By Daniel Schell

The first permit has been issued to begin construction on a seven-story, 91-unit residential development on the northwest corner of North Sheridan and West Irving Park Roads in Uptown. Catapult Real Estate Solutions is the developer and recipient of the permit, which had been pending in the Chicago Data Portal since November 25 of last year. It includes a reported cost of $31.5 million, which seems more likely to be the reported cost of all construction permits rather than just the caissons.

Bally's Casino hotel tower April 2026 construction update

Bally’s Casino Hotel Tower Approaches Its 30th Floor

7:30 am on April 3, 2026 By Daniel Schell

In mid-February when we last checked up on the hotel tower for Bally’s Casino in River West, the second tower crane jump had just been completed.
