This new proposal is definitely an eyesore, but I'm willing to accept it because it's not on any major streets. It's a block off Milwaukee and a block off Lawrence at Ainslie and Lipps. This area was always going to be parking, loading, and service for the businesses along the main streets... I'm glad there is also a residential component that will bring serious density to this area as well. |

Thanks for posting these. This project has a shade of EnV (or at least that's what this early glass installation - which looks very nice btw, reminds me of ......), a tower I'm quite fond of...... |
The Bridges - Division & Halsted

I believe CPS is considering the site across this development as the potential site for the new Near Northside College Prep (formerly called Barack Obama College prep). The students will certainly have something interesting to look outside their classroom when they're bored. They will get to see the Chicago Skyline evolve and grow, and then they'll see this thing... at least there is a park facing the river, that's gotta count as something.

Halsted & Division
Woof.
Wasn't there a prior proposal for retail development at Halsted and Division. I vaguely remember that it incorporated the existing three-to-four story brick building along Division? EDIT: This? https://38.media.tumblr.com/f340054c...arzo2_1280.jpg http://www.chicagobusiness.com/reale...ors-mojo-south |
The site plan gives no indication that the corner of Halsted and Division is even part of this project.
As for the diagonal, that's the Kingsbury Street ROW. It probably has to remain open for utility access. For years, I've been hoping it could become part of a cycling facility rather than get dithered away into townhouse common areas as has happened to the south of this site. |

And They want to put three levels of parking above the huge, open, column free spaces of a theater? Are they nuts? P.S., iPic is a real theater chain, not just placeholder advertising. Wonder if they're already signed on as a tenant? |
So help me god
