Initial site plans have been revealed for the upcoming mixed-use development known as Foundry Park near Goose Island. Earlier this year, we reported on local developer JDL’s announcement of their plans to purchase the northern half of the former Lincoln Yards megadevelopment. Now, some initial plans have been presented to the community.

JDL is working with Chicago-based architecture firm HPA on the site’s master plan, which will also encompass a small portion of the land south of the river. After several months of planning, two images of the potential site layout have surfaced, shared by Jameson Sotheby’s and Katie Bishop Properties.

Based on this summer’s announcement, the images confirm that the project will center around an extension of Southport Avenue, connecting Kingsbury Street to Cortland Street. The street will be flanked by mixed-use mid-rises of around 20 stories, surrounded by over eight acres of park space—including courtyards, playgrounds, and a riverwalk.
