Construction Begins on New High-Rise in Chicago’s South Loop Neighborhood

CHICAGO, Ill. – Construction is officially underway on a new 47-story apartment tower at 1326 S. Michigan Avenue in Chicago, Illinois’ South Loop neighborhood.

Being built by Walsh Construction, and designed by Solomon Cordwell Buenz, the tower will contain 500 luxury rental units, 7,500 square feet of retail and 188 parking spaces. The design features a unique glass façade and a wide range of amenities including co-working space, library, lounge, dog park, green spaces, a spa and rooftop pool.

The apartment tower is being developed by Murphy Development Group and CIM Group. The structure is slated to open in mid-2019 and will be built to LEED-certified standards.

This project will add to Walsh’s portfolio of recent luxury high-rise construction in Chicago’s South Loop. The firm is constructing Alta Roosevelt, a 33-story apartment building and recently completed 1001 South State, an amenity-filled 40-story tower.
