In Logan Square

Back in February, we updated you on the ongoing demolition at the old Forum Theater and told you about upcoming plans to demolish three structures on the south side of the 2100 block of Market Street. Those buildings, previously home to Les Gals and Hoagie City, have been undergoing demolition

It's amazing, but it's been over a year since we last checked in on the new Family Court building at 15th & Arch. When we last were here, it was a mere hole in the ground. But oh, what a difference fifteen months makes!

What was a standard don’t look twice five-story building is nearing completion of being transformed into a 13-story 281-unit mixed-use building with a glass-faced façade that

Last summer, we mentioned rumors that the extremely popular and often overcrowded Trader Joe's at 22nd & Market would be undergoing renovations and an expansion. And when we stopped by to pick up some essentials the other day, we discovered that the much-anticipated renovations have been completed. A new front flower display was unveiled

About a month ago, roughly 1,300 GlaxoSmithKline workers vacated the building at 16th & Vine that was specifically built for their company fourteen years ago. With their move to a new (and really nice) facility at The Navy Yard, they left behind 225K sqft of office space on the edge of
