A new report from Curbed has revealed that yet another new residential project could be in the works for the West Loop, which at this point is hardly a surprise. As one of the hottest neighborhoods in town, the West Loop is absolutely booming right now, and the latest proposal on the table is a new 52-unit apartment building that’s slated for 128. S. Laflin. 

Currently occupying the site is a small one-level industrial building, which would of course be demolished should the project gain approval and construction eventually move forward. 

According to Curbed, however, West Loop neighbors aren’t thrilled about the early design concept given its close proximity to the Jackson Boulevard Historic District. 

With the project only just now is the early

Downtown Chicago New Construction Apartments on the MLSBy now, there’s a pretty good chance you’ve heard the narrative—new construction rentals and apartments continue to be delivered all throughout downtown Chicago, and just when we think there might be somewhat of a slowdown on the development side of things, another large-scale project is announced.

Among some of the more dynamic new construction apartment towers currently renting are Landmark West Loop, Exhibit on Superior, and the fabulous 1333 S. Wabash building down in Chicago’s rapidly changing South Loop neighborhood.

The downtown Chicago area has seen a whole lot of new development reshape both the city’s landscape and its distinguished skyline in recent years, and now with 2017 already half over, which almost seems hard to believe, there seems to be no sign of a slowdown coming anytime soon, especially as the Chicago Tribune just reminded us of how many large-scale projects are still currently in the works. 

According to the piece, Chicago has at least 10 developments that will cost $1 billion or more to finish, which are either already under construction or at the very least in the final planning stages before development can officially begin. And while the roster of these mega-projects of course vary in terms of eventual use, here’s a quick look at what to

It doesn’t seem like all that long ago that living right next door to an “L” station was the last place you’d want to call home. While the convenience of being near public transportation is always a benefit, many assumed the noise would simply be too much of a nuisance to justify the investment. 

Today, things are slightly different, and the emergence of brand new transit-oriented developments (TODs) are re-shaping how we view living spaces in the city. 

Given the state of Chicago’s red hot rental market, many TODs being built in Chicago fall into the category of luxury apartment residences, but even condo buyers are starting to see a greater upside to living just a short distance away from various “L” stops. 

Recognizing a shift in the market,

More new condos appear to be on the way to River North as plans for an 11-story building have just recently been revealed by Belgravia Group.

Although Chicago’s downtown market might appear to be oversaturated with new upscale apartment residences, the development boom seems to be pushing forward as reports surface about a new 199-unit tower possibly making its way over to the South Loop. 

Being developed by Chicago-based Russland Capital Group, preliminary plans have the new building stretching 15 stories high, which if approved, would be located at 1411 S. Michigan Avenue, just a short walk away from Soldier Field. 

Chicago’s occupancy rate for high-end apartments dropped to 92.2% in the third quarter, which has some industry experts wondering if a softening of the market is finally on the horizon. But regardless of Chicago’s most recent development boom bringing a record-breaking 4,500

It’s been a little while since we’ve heard about Riverline—the mega South Loop mixed-use development in the works that will totally redefine the neighborhood as we know it.
