Somehow I missed the whole zoning application day(s) this week, but here's a rundown of some of the ones
1) Hartshorne Plunkard is proposing to re-develop its Headquarters site and the building next door to the west of it. They are proposing that the building and parking lot to the west of them would be a 12 story, 147 foot tall (138 to top of building) Hotel while their current building at 232 N Carpenter would become a 6 story office building. This is very close to Google along Fulton Market.

One of the other buildings right near this is already being renovated and there are some small scale developments from some Chinese developments nearby. This is part of the old Central Manufacturing District.

3) Retail/Parking building in Lakeview East on Broadway between Barry and Briar is getting a new addition on top (not sure if it's 1 floor or technically 2) - bringing it to 7 total floors at just under 83 feet tall. They're going to reduce the number of parking spaces by 50% bringing it to 60 and then there's going to be 72 residential units in there. 40 of the parking spaces will be for residents while the other 20 will be for the public.
