This is a different proposal. It's sandwiched between Goose Island and the Bally's site along Chicago Ave.

It seems the North Branch will be the next frontier. This area could be a beehive of activity in a year or two but It'll take a decade + to get all this built.

Probably three decades if it’s business as usual, but who knows.

Yes indeed I am wrong, sorry. I assumed it was the Goose Island project probably because I’m surprised we have yet another project on the river at that same area. Great news, a new neighborhood is emerging.

All of Chicago’s river had numerous sites with potential. This is only the start

It's only a matter of time before the industrial area (concrete?) on the west side of halsted is developed too.

Damn that's some nice density! Would be absolutely thrilling to see the canyonization of the north branch of the river continue northward.

Excellent work!

You have 700 W. Chicago taller than the main tower of Halsted Point. Remember, that one will stretch to 694'.

Good, the more gridlock between downtown and the freeway the less people will drive downtown.

And since when have people ever had any common sense?

Just the smaller tower?

[Randomguy34]

No, the entire development

Was there a slight height cut or was the 690+ foot building another phase?

That's okay though it'll still be a cool complex.

I could be misremembering, but I think the 690 footer was part of Halstead Point Phase 3, right across the river?

[Randomguy34]

You are correct, the max height for this development was originally 600 ft.

[BrickellBased]

Development of the North Branch is very exciting for the city.

Project deferred.
