Chicago’s newest tower crane is at 145 South Wells. And it’s a shiny yellow one!
The 20-story office tower Moceri + Roszak is building at 145 South Wells has erected The Loop’s first tower crane since we waved bye-bye to the sidewalk-hovering iron beast at 151 North Franklin more than a year ago. Now the real fun begins for Clark Construction, what with the crane being operational and caissons having been sunk into the earth. That means it’s time for some verticality at 145 South Wells.
Do what you do, shiny yellow crane.
The New East Side / Lakeshore East is part of the Loop community area, so the Loop hasn’t gone without a crane for some time.
This blog doesn’t consider that part of The Loop.
