Grant Park Tower 3 & 4

Thanks to Jeremiah D. for directing us to the latest plans for the prestigious developments along Roosevelt.

Even with declining Chicago condo sales in many neighborhoods, one section seems to be holding its own and maybe even gaining ground. Central Station is still attracting buyers and Chicago real estate developer Gerald Fogelson of Fogelson Companies is confident enough to move forward with the first of two new towers.
