It’s been more than 18 months since we’ve checked in on Alta Grand Central in the South Loop. That was in June of 2018, just after Alta Grand Central had been announced on Instagram. Not surprisingly, it has gone from dirt lot to near-completion in that amount of time.
The two 14-story, Pappageorge Haymes Partners-designed apartment towers contain 346 units. Wood Partners is the developer and Walsh Construction the general contractor, just like they were around the corner at Alta Roosevelt.
Alta Grand Central looks move-in ready from the outside, but we still need to wait a bit for the opening.

Building Up Chicago 
Just want to say Im so glad you’re back posting the construction news. It’s the best so far compared to others I found online. 300 N Michigan still appears to be barren, Hopefully that will change soon! Welcome back!

Hi
I got your email and will reply here so others can see.
I dont think the many enthusiasts out there are aware of your site. I found yours after much sifting through similar sites over a year ago.
I would strongly suggest showcasing your link to places like Chicago Curbed, Chicago Cityscape, Block Chicago etc. especially Curbed and Cityscape where your work will be surely appreciated by the construction enthusiasts there. There aren’t any other sites that are comprehensive and up-to-date as yours.
All the best!
