Illinois Street Westbound Lane and Temporary Parking to Close for Work at 1st Street Site

Work is progressing on Building 3 at the southeast corner of the 1st Street Development, at Illinois Street and the river. Steel for the building frame is scheduled to be delivered starting this month and will require closure of temporary parking and one lane on Illinois Street.

Temporary Parking to Close

The temporary parking off of 1st Street, at the north end of the construction site across from the 1st Street Plaza, will be closed starting April 17 to allow for staging of the steel delivery. The angled parking along 1st Street and the nearby parking decks will remain open.

Westbound Illinois Street Reduced to One Lane

The outside westbound lane of Illinois Street will be closed beginning April 24, for approximately 6 weeks.

About Building 3 of the 1st Street Development

Building 3 is a five-story office and residential condominium building, which will house Sterling Bank offices. Plans call for a bilevel riverwalk to be located along the building and the river.

“Work at the 1st Street site is progressing at a steady pace,” said Community and Economic Development Director Rita Tungare. “Building 3 is on schedule to be completed late summer 2018. Adjacent at Building 1, the street level businesses, Kilwins Chocolates, Brunch Café and Vintage 53 are all open. And the buildout continues on the upper floors of Building 1, which will house ALE Solutions. It’s great to see all the hard work and planning come to fruition.”
