Scope Of Work
Developed and constructed by Lendlease, Southbank is a new neighborhood ideally located on the bank of the Chicago River and situated in the heart of Chicago's booming South Loop.
The Southbank neighborhood is zoned to offer as many as 2,700 units across five high rises surrounding a two-acre public park. Southbank Park will include open green space with recreational amenities and a continuous Riverwalk from Harrison Street to Polk Street along the South Branch of the Chicago River. A new water taxi stop at the south end of the property will connect the area with Chinatown and The Loop. Southbank Market will feature local retailers such as coffee roasters, local restaurants and temporary pop-up retail creating a vibrant experience for residents and guests. The neighborhood is within walking distance from The Loop, lakefront and several CTA stops, offering easy access to the city's parks, trails and museums.
Southbank, as a brand, is about celebrating artists and designers by showcasing their work within first-class buildings and public spaces for the neighborhood. It will be a neighborhood destination within the South Loop that is reflective of the area's eclectic roots, paying particular attention to the artistic past of nearby Printer's Row.
All residences at Southbank will offer luxurious living with ecologically conscious design and best-in-class amenities. The amenities offer endless opportunities for inspiration, while environmentally friendly and energy-efficient details create a bold neighborhood with a sustainable footprint.
All projects will pursue LEED Certification.
