Demolition started Thursday at the Erie-LaSalle Body Shop on Erie Street, making way for The Bentham.
As if this little corner of River North wasn’t busy enough…
Add The Bentham to the list. A little birdie let us know that Quality Excavation had begun demolition Thursday afternoon at the old Erie-LaSalle Body Shop at 146 West Erie Street, as well as the two-story building at 668 North LaSalle. Now a block that already includes work on The Ardus and Marlowe greets The Bentham.
The Bentham is the latest venture from Sedgwick Development. The 15-story, 172-foot-tall tower will have just 31 3-bed/3-bath residences.
We already know Adjustable Forms will handle the masonry work; they tweeted their excitement about getting started earlier in the week, along with a stellar rendering.
We are very excited to announce our newest project, the Bentham. Find more information at https://t.co/xoNTTTeQMi pic.twitter.com/LPOblGyP1u

This lovely two-story model at 668 North LaSalle has to go as well.
