Plans for a new residential development at 1225 South Indiana Avenue in the South Loop are moving forward, as the developer has applied for permits. Located at the intersection with East 13th Street, the project was initially pitched in 2022 to replace a large vacant lot near NEMA and behind One Museum Park.

For the past few years, a local developer has been working with 2RZ Architecture on plans for the relatively low-density proposal, dubbed Parkway Residences. The Z-shaped building will be anchored by a new small public park at the main street corner, which will be fenced and feature a large lawn, benches, and landscaping.

Below the five-story structure will be an 89-space parking garage, accessed via a new ramp off 13th Street. The building above will include a small lobby, bike parking room, fitness room, and 100 residential units, including some duplexes. These will consist of 60 one-bedroom, 13 two-bedroom, 25 three-bedroom, and two four-bedroom layouts.

The building will be capped by a large rooftop deck with small canopies. The exterior will be clad in a mix of brick, cast stone, and various tones of metal panels. Having received city approval a few years ago, the development can move forward once permits are issued. Construction is expected to take approximately 14 to 16 months to complete.
