Installation of the outer walls is progressing on the exterior of 43Green Phase II, a mixed-use development project in Bronzeville. The project recently reached a milestone by topping out at a height of 106 feet. Located at 4309 S Prairie Avenue, adjacent to the 43rd Street CTA station, the project follows the completed initial phase located on the other side of the tracks.
Foundation permits were applied for the potential next phase of the Southbank development in the South Loop. Located at 648 S Wells Street, just south of the intersection with W Harrison Street, the new structure will come soon after the opening of The Reed nearby. The project is being led by developer Lendlease with architecture firm FitzGerald Associates working on its design.
A renovation project is underway at 6219 North Clark Street in Edgewater, where an existing second-floor storage area for the existing three-story, masonry, mixed-use condominium located at the address is being converted into a two-bedroom residential unit. This addition to the building was approved on January 16, and has a budget of $150,000.
Updated details were revealed for the mixed-use development dubbed ‘Old Town Canvas’ at 1610 N LaSalle Drive. Developer Fern Hill showed the new renderings at a community meeting earlier this week, with neighbors voicing their concerns. Local design firm GREC Architects is working on the tower which will replace the existing Walgreens on the corner with W North Avenue.
Final facade work is underway for a new mixed-use development at 4513 N Clark Street in Uptown. This new five-story project, known as Harmony Apartments, is replacing several one-story masonry commercial buildings. MCZ Development has planned a total of 56 units, with six being affordable. The residential section, positioned above 3,400 square feet of ground-floor retail space, will offer access to a rooftop deck and a resident amenity room.
