CHICAGO — Co-developers Time Equities Inc., JK Equities and Oak Capitals plan to soon begin vertical construction for 1000M, a 73-story apartment high-rise in Chicago’s South Loop district. Named for its address (1000 S. Michigan Ave.), 1000M will stand 788 feet tall upon completion in 2025, making it one of the tallest apartment towers in Chicago. 1000M was originally conceived as a for-sale condominium tower but during a pause in construction during the COVID-19 pandemic, the co-developers decided to reposition the asset as a rental residential tower. Construction recommenced following a $304.5 million loan from Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank Wealth Management, according to various media outlets. The 738-unit apartment tower will offer residences ranging from studios to three-bedroom penthouse units. The development will also feature a golf simulator room, outdoor swimming pool with cabanas, a cookout area and a full-service 73rd floor bar and lounge offering views of the Chicago skyline. In addition, a 325-car parking garage will be concealed behind the apartments. Nearby attractions and venues include Grant Park, Lake Michigan, Soldier Field & Museum, Humboldt Park Formal Gardens, Columbia College Chicago, Hilton Chicago and Trader Joe’s.
