The 1000M residential tower in Chicago’s South Loop, what is likely the last design by the late architect Helmut Jahn, has cleared a hurdle to resuming construction under revised plans approved by the Chicago Plan Commission.

委员会于6月17日为6月17日为重新配置的塔为1000 S.密歇根大道。该设计现在呼吁公寓而不是原来的公寓,但这种变化仍然必须得到市议会的批准。

The architecture firm, JAHN, whose最近的名称校长, reduced the building's height by 27 ft, and changed it to 738 apartments rather than the 521 condominiums it was originally planned to have. Under the new design, the building would still be Jahn’s tallest in Chicago, at 805 ft, rather than 832 ft in the original plans.

承包商詹姆斯·米奇·建设有限公司于2019年开始,但在大流行期间暂停了一年前。施工金融家高盛已完成对470万美元结构的基础工作支付,但由于对城市不断变化的房地产市场的担忧,进一步损害。

Francis A. Greenburger是纽约市的时间股票主席,该项目的三家开发商之一,以及JK Equities和Oak Capitals表示,公寓而不是公寓将是向前发展的正确方法。

“市场专家告诉我们,可比较的高级豪华奢侈品建筑物随着需求和租赁而活泼,”他说。

He said the pandemic has affected the real estate and construction industries in many ways and is a prime reason for making the changes.

“The pandemic period has been challenging for everyone,” he said. “We have dealt with these challenges and changes in market conditions by adjusting our development plan in a responsible way so as to have the best final result.”

Greenburger预测融资将最终确定,施工将于今年晚些时候或2022年初开始。

“We hope to close financing and start construction in the fall but if not then, it would be in the spring,” he said.

他表示,尽管去年面临的最大障碍之一,但仍然期待着推进该项目,这是在5月份在自行车事故中丧生的jahn,81人的损失。

“他将大大错过,”格林堡说。“但我们期待着1000米的完成携带遗留。”
