Update on 601 Davis Street
Hello Everyone,
Here are a few new images of the proposed new development at 601 Davis St in Evanston. https://res.cloudinary.com/courbaniz...qimqtlg2pb8edn https://res.cloudinary.com/courbaniz...8ctol3orpoec9t https://res.cloudinary.com/courbaniz...uhc3sk0ffqgaqs The project will be in front of the Planning and Development Committee of the Evanston City Council on Monday evening January 22 at 715pm. Comments about the project are being collected through this link for review and consideration by City Council: https://courbanize.com/projects/601d...t=5.%20General The project replaces a vacant parcel and a decades old Chase drive-thru with a new 33 story building (7,500sf of ground floor retail with podium parking and a setback tower). |
it'd certainly be exciting to see evanston finally get a new tallest building after nearly 50 years, and this looks like a nicely designed tower, but i have serious doubts that the evanston city council will approve it at its currently proposed height.
they'll probably ask the developer to lop off 10 or so floors and approve it at ~250'. |
Was supposed to go before the Evanston council this week for a vote, but was tabled until the 22nd.

Reading the comments on that website by those NIMBYs just hurts my heart and my head. I don't understand how people can become so separated from reality
|
no surprise, this one is DOA.

evanston's city council is now mostly constituted of height phobics. the chances of a tower over 300' being approved by the current city council are nil. |
Assholes.
We need more urban suburbs (with high rises) than just Evanston and Oak Park. More options for developers. Aww hell,just pile um all in the city, in the meantime. More for all almighty Chicago, I guess... |
That's unfortunate. Fear of heights can be cured, its called electrocution! :wiseman:
