Now that the Chicago River less resembles the toxic cesspool it once was, Chicago residents no longer avoid the river for fear of contracting typhoid fever and other infectious diseases. In fact, some people actually want to live close to the river, or at least that seems to be the assumption of several developers in and around Avondale.
For this region, it’s necessary to break the list into two groups: the three developments that we’ve kept a relatively close watch over, and that seem more likely to be completed, and the three that I have less information about, or that seem to be idling.
These first three are, from what I can tell, either completed or are currently under construction:
- Cornelia Court, 3001 W Cornelia Ave: Two-bedrooms are priced from the the $470s, three-bedrooms are priced from the $510s to $520s, and four-bedrooms are listed from the $580s to the $640s.
- The Homes of Rivers Edge, 2801 N Oakley Ave: 76 1- and 2-bedroom condos priced from $260s to the $520s and 11 3-bedroom townhouses priced from the $670s to the $690s
- Fletcher Row, 2424 W Fletcher St (below, at left): 20 3- and 4-bedroom / 3.5 bath condos priced from the $600s to the $800s

And these are the three that we know less about:
- North River Court, 2700 W Belmont Ave: 46 two- and three-bedroom condos, from the $280s to the $470s
- Bankside Townhouses, 2951 N Oakley Ave: 33 townhouses and four single-family homes priced from the $550s to the $900s
- La Riviere, 2825 N Oakley Ave (below): 15 four-bedroom / 4.5-bath townhouses priced from the $980s

Ah Yes, one of these days there will be “commuter boats” competing with buses and commuter trains. They will start their journey in the north suburbs (the “Channel” along McCormack Bld.), make stops in West Rogers Park, Ravenswood and points south, then terminate downtown.
I’ve been hearing this story for at least 10 years now!
WMS, the gaming company, which is located on Roscoe and the River takes up a huge amount of river front space. They are supposed to be moving within the next couple years to the West Loop, which I read in an article months ago. It will be interesting to see if WMS’ buildings get demolished and are turned into a residential development. It would definitley make a long, nice continuouse River Walk connection with the Belmont River Club that is next door to WMS. Definitley will keep an eye out for that.
BTW good roundup.
I don’t know about any commuter boats, but the public launch site at Roscoe and the river is a nice perk, and the riverwalk starting at Belmont running north to the launch is very peaceful.
funny you wrote this, I’m actually looking into getting a kayak to take advantage of that launch, while it’s a tad boring to head north, the trip south is fascinating.
