I did a double-take this morning as I was driving in to work and saw site barriers and fencing being installed around the Exchange site, at the southeast corner of Michigan Avenue and Rose Street. The far right lanes on both Michigan and Rose are now blocked to traffic. By all appearances, this project is now moving forward, and initial site prep is underway.
Here are some photos that I took later in the day - not much to see here yet, but you can get a sense of the area.
At 15 stories, this is a considerable size building for the city, and it will be the largest development happening in the city once it breaks ground, which could be very soon, by the looks of it. I hope we see updated / improved renderings soon.
PS - Is there any way to change / update the thread title? Since we know a bit more info about the project now?
