Right... I'm happy someone got it in writing at least. If they don't start then, I think we should put the thread into hibernation mode

Unless they mean October 2020 lol

For real. if the reports of slow sales are true, it's certainly hasn't been from a lack of advertising effort.

GC is McHugh. I heard they have a hard requirement of breaking ground this year so are targeting a December ground breaking. I'm unclear on whether this is due to a city requirement or some other hard deadline, but the project team is allegedly working towards a December start.

This does seem to be lie #1000, but does anyone really care if it ends up being December? I had almost counted this one out earlier in the year and now feel so excited that we're getting a unique, 800ft+, skyline-changing tower with perma views of the lake/park. Even if this gets delayed again until 2020, I'm so excited for this one!

Until this thing is 25 floors up, I'm not convinced it'll be finished. Too much deception

^ it is possible that the sales team's report of an october groundbreaking and bombardier's indsider info of a december start might both be correct.

they might indeed be planning some kind of ceremonial "groundbreaking" in october with the dignitaries, gold shovels, and all of that circus, and actual construction work (ie. caisson drilling) might not commence until december.

it still seems a little hard to believe with what we've heard about sales on this project, but time will tell.......

Is there a real estate development or architectural equivalent to the term "vaporware?" Maybe a "phantom project?" Regardless, that's how this sucker feels. It's the new worst project in Chicago.

On the Oct Landmarks agenda for renewal. I remain hopeful.

Quote:
1000 S. Michigan 4th Ward
Historic Michigan Boulevard District
Renewal of expired approval for a new 73-story, 832’ residential tower with ground-floor
retail and a 10-story parking structure at the base and consideration of proposed exterior
cladding materials.

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Committee find that the project, with the
following conditions, meets the criteria set forth in the
Commission’s Rules and Regulations, the Commission’s
Guidelines for Alterations to Historic Buildings and New
Construction and the Design Guidelines for the Historic Michigan
Boulevard District therefore, the project will not have an adverse
effect on the significant historical and architectural features of the
landmark district and approve the project with the following
conditions:
1. As proposed, staff recommends that the exterior changes
outlined are minor and may be approved as submitted per
drawings dated 7/18/19;
2. As proposed the cladding samples for the tower spandrels and
parking enclosure will be mill-finish aluminum (5005
Aluminum Mill Finish produced by Peterson Aluminum), the
window frames and passage screens shall be a matte steel
finish (1078-47 MTA Fluoronar, Dark Steel, 49644B produced by
TNEMEC Co.) and the glass shall have a grey color (AGC Interpane
Ipasol neutral 48/27) per submitted samples; and,
3. Any major changes to the proposal will come back for review
and approval by the Permit Review Committee.

I personally don't care about the reduction in architecturally quality at this location.

For the skyline this would be a major player regardless of quality as long as it stays as tall as it is supposed to be.

Tourists are not going to go in and take a piss.

They will see it from Grant Park and see the gap in the tooth filled further south.


To me that's the most important part of this project. Plus its a Jahn project so I

will take anything he has left in him at this point. Especially at this location.

I hate the parking podium. I would love if they continued the tower facade all the way to ground level.
