Blommer Chocolate plans to end its 85-year tradition of sending candied aromas into Chicago’s River West in May, but real estate developers are getting a fresh whiff of the possibilities of the long-coveted site on Kinzie Street that's large enough to hold two residential high-rises.
After announcing plans last week to shut its four-story factory at 600 W. Kinzie St., Blommer now says it is headed toward an eventual sale of the 5.5-acre site that long has been eyed by property professionals.
