Full building permit issued for development at 370 N. Morgan

A full building permit has been issued for the new mixed-use development located at 370 N. Morgan. Planned by Vista Property Group, the development is the first phase of their three-tower mixed-use development at the intersection of W. Kinzie St and N. Morgan St. The site is bound by W. Kinzie St to the north, N. Morgan St to the east, the Metra tracks to the south, and N. Carpenter St to the west.

Designed by Antunovich Associates, the new 31-story mixed-use development will stand 380 feet in height clad in a dark metal and glass window wall system with a brick podium. 

With a total count of 493 units, the apartments will be split into 154 efficiency units and 339 dwelling units according to permit filings. 190 parking spaces will be provided with 80% of them set to be electric-vehicle ready and 494 bike parking spaces will also be included.

On the ground floor, the residential lobby will face N. Morgan St with a metal canopy reaching out into the new landscaped plaza that occupies the corner and overlooks the intersection. Retail space will occupy the rest of the street frontage between the residential entry and the Metra tracks. Management and leasing offices will be located along Kinzie behind the lobby and the bike room will occupy the rest of the Kinzie St frontage. Loading and parking access will be from N. Carpenter St. 

With financing in place and permits in hand, general contractor Skender already has construction going in full swing. The issuance of the full building permit will allow work to continue through completion, which is targeted for Spring 2027.
