Auger cast piles are in full effect at the 1221 West Washington residential tower where the Fulton Market District meets the West Loop. Michels Construction has a giant corkscrew at the construction site that has been drilling shafts into the earth, to be filled in with concrete and then a rebar cage.
Three permits were issued by the City of Chicago over the past week to erect a trio of two-story, six-unit residential buildings in East Garfield Park. All three applications were filed on January 6 of this year. The first two permits came through on October 24, and the third was issued October 27. Each permit shows a reported cost of $2.375 million.
Further renderings and details have been revealed for the upcoming mixed-use development at 214 North Morgan Street in Fulton Market. Sitting mid-block between Lake and Fulton Streets, the current high-rise proposal was revealed a month ago by developers Parq Development and Luxury Living. Now, the plans have officially been presented to the community.
There has been no groundbreaking yet, but soil is turning for the new residential building at 227 West Chicago Avenue in River North. Site prep is underway for the ten-story building that scored both its caisson and full permits in September. Add to that the construction loan developer Noah Properties secured earlier this month, and now the site is active.
The Chicago City Council has approved a mixed-use development at 1215 West Belmont Avenue in Lakeview. Located near the intersection with North Racine Avenue, the project was originally announced this summer as a replacement for the now-vacant Stage 773 theater that occupies the site. The effort is being led by JAB Real Estate.
