113 East Roosevelt (Phase II)
Phase II of 113 East Roosevelt is a skyscraper planned for Chicago, Illinois in the Near South Side community area. It will be located at the southeast corner of Roosevelt Road and Michigan Avenue,[1] located adjacent to the southwest corner of Grant Park.[2] The skyscraper is designed by Rafael Viñoly as the second of a three phase development that includes a slightly shorter Phase I NEMA (Chicago) and a 100-unit townhouse development and public park as the third phase. It is planned to have 648 units that will likely be condominiums.[3] Miami developer Crescent Heights acquired the real estate for the development in 2012 for $29.5 million.[1] The development was presented in a community meeting on September 22, 2015.[3] The Chicago Plan Commission approved the development on November 19, 2015 in a meeting that also resulted in the approval of the Wanda Vista tower.[4] The building will be located on a 2-acre (8,094 m2) site.[1] Financing is a prerequisite to initial groundbreaking.[1]
