CHICAGO — Fifield Cos. has broken ground on The Sinclair in Chicago’s Gold Coast neighborhood. The 390-unit, transit-oriented luxury apartment tower — which will also include a grocery store — is slated for completion in the summer of 2017. The 35-story building will offer studio, one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom residences, with individual units ranging from 550 to 2,500 square feet. Unit amenities include plank flooring, quartz countertops, glass tile backsplashes, Grohe faucets, GE stainless steel appliances, Nest programmable thermostats and in-unit washers and dryers. Community amenities include a pool and spa, cabanas and grilling areas, a fitness club with yoga studio, a screening room, a demonstration kitchen and party room, a Starbucks coffee bar, business center, conference room and children’s playroom stocked with toys and games. The building will also include a 55,000-square-foot retail space leased by Jewel-Osco. The Sinclair will be located adjacent to the Chicago Transit Authority’s Red Line station at Clark and Division streets and serviced by several CTA buses. Solomon Cordwell Buenz is the building’s principal architect and interior designer. McHugh Construction will serve as the general contractor for the project.
