808 N Cleveland
?
Big Deahl Phase I (I think)
757 N Hudson

Not my map, 401 W Chicago is under construction and 301 W Huron should be starting soon

Oh you are right I got confused. Thanks!

I thought tower crane at Ally recently came down? The building topped off weeks ago. Unless this a new crane that they are going to use to build the riverwalk?
There's also a new crane at 732 W. Randolph. Edit: Someone already posted pics on the previous page.

Apologies for the graininess here (zoom + iPhone 7), but thought this gave a nice sense of West Loop activity.

Three yellow cranes in row.

All 3 buildings in big dheal under construction, there’s 2 tower cranes on that sight.

one crane is 808 Cleveland and the other two are big deahl

Hmm. Ok, not sure what the 2nd crane is then. I am pretty sure the 3rd is the Big Deahl crane. I can only see one crane on that site though. Unless this is the second one for that site but it looks like it's farther away to me.

Any chance there is a crane going up at Morton Salt?

The 2nd and 3rd cranes are for the Big Deahl site. The one on the left is for the highrise. Its taller, not further. Ally is not visible in this view. It is blocked by the Hudson

I must have misinterpreted your nuanced comment. Please, elaborate on your garbage opinion so we may all be brought out of the darkness.

Ah that makes sense, thank you.

This is a weird one.

I'm still pretty sore about the loss of the old office component of the ADM site at the corner of Elizabeth and Carroll. It was a very handsome 6 story brick structure that the city should have forced the developer to an adaptive reuse within their master plan.

That said, I like this new proposal. I dig the circular concrete drums as the crown on the building. We need more reminders like this of the neighborhood's industrial past, because the evidence of it is vanishing at a fast clip.

terrible parking ratio.

Especially if the Metra station materializes

People really have the audacity to say there's limited parking in Chicago lmao. There's TOO MUCH parking actually, literally every new building is littered with parking.

It was 715, so progress. Pretty sure its because of Fulton becoming a P street, which allowed the trim. Agree though. There is a 7 story parking garage literally across the street that sits mostly empty.

The development is on Carroll Street and is just a little too far from the Green Line to count as TOD. The parking reduction is likely because it has downtown zoning
