Renderings have emerged for the new mixed-use development at 910 S. Wells. As part of the overall Riverline development, Urbanize reported on the building, also known as Riverline Parcel F Building B, securing site plan approval from DPD last week. Planned by CMK Companies, this next phase of the overall development is located along the South Branch of the Chicago River at the intersection of S. Wells St and W. 10th St where the Taylor St R.O.W. cuts through the development site.

On the ground floor, the building’s residential lobby will occupy its eastern frontage on S. Wells St with the retail space on the southeast corner facing S. Wells St to the east and the Taylor Street R.O.W. to the south. The building’s parking and loading access will be via a curb cut from S. Wells St that enters on the north side of the building. Bike storage will be located next to the parking access with an amenity space in the northwest corner of the ground floor overlooking the riverwalk with an outdoor terrace.
