Plans to redevelop the former site of the Michael Reese Hospital, once the planned location for Chicago’s Olympic Village, are moving forward with the mayor’s announcement Friday of the development team.
The project, led by Farpoint Development, Draper & Kramer, Chicago Neighborhood Initiatives, McLaurin Development Partners, Bronzeville Community Development Partnership and Skidmore Owings & Merrill, is set to transform the nearly 50-acre Bronzeville site, according to the mayor’s office. The site sits just south of McCormick Place.
