Chicago New Construction Project Lincoln Park 2520 is Well on its Way

I’ve talked a lot about the Chicago new construction project Lincoln Park 2520, and for good reason. With so few condo projects in the pipeline and Lincoln Park 2520 offering the finest options in luxury living in one of Chicago’s best neighborhoods, there’s no doubt I’m not the only one anticipating its official arrival in 2012.

I live about 4 blocks from the Lincoln Park 2520 site, and it’s been really exciting to see this building start to make major headway—both in actual construction as well as listening to buyers, agents and builders alike say how much they’re looking forward to this new addition to the Chicago real estate market. Lincoln Park 2520 will be the premier building in Lincoln Park, and will likely become a Chicago icon.
So what gives a building such status in a city as big as Chicago? Other iconic Chicago condo buildings like the Palmolive, Trump Tower and even the upcoming Ritz-Carlton Residences on Michigan Avenue have historically shown that their condos only increase in value as time goes on. Lincoln Park 2520 is in this same boat—slated to become a renowned piece or architecture and coveted in the Chicago real estate market.

The primary reason is the superb credentials of everyone involved in this project to make it a stand-out building in terms of architecture, construction, design, amenities and services. The Lincoln Park 2520 team is made up of some of the most prominent professionals in their respective fields. That team includes:
Lucien Lagrange Architects: The lead architect on Lincoln Park 2520, Lucien Lagrange Architects has been a force in the Chicago architecture scene for 25 years. One of this last projects before Lagrange’s upcoming retirement, this building will showcase an elegant European design rooted in French architecture—yet will blend in seamlessly among other Chicago real estate buildings along the lakefront.
Darcy Bonner & Associates: Responsible for the interior architecture of Lincoln Park 2520, Darcy Bonner & Associates have earned a name for themselves in turning Chicago new construction into warm and beautiful living spaces. Darcy Bonner is personally leading the development and design of the entire interior of the building.

Walsh Construction: With a residential portfolio that includes the Legacy and the Heritage at Millennium Park, industry leader Walsh Construction is spearheading Lincoln Park 2520’s development.
Thomas Balsley Associates: Since the plan for Lincoln Park 2520 includes a one-acre private garden, the landscape architecture calls for the best in the business. Thomas Balsley Associates has been lauded worldwide for its creative urban spaces, including plazas and parks, waterfalls and streetscapes.
Lincoln Park 2520 also has top investors, engineers and project planners involved, each with extensive experience and skill in Chicago real estate. This well-rounded group of experts will ensure that this project maintains its prestige and panache for years to come.
