Chicago Sun-Times Building....nearing the end of demolition
Donald Trump said Tuesday that he has closed on a $640 million construction loan from Deutsche Bank for his Chicago skyscraper, to be built on the riverfront site of the former Chicago Sun-Times building, 401 N. Wabash Ave. The financing had been anticipated since late October. Trump also said he has boosted the size of the project. The number of condominiums has increased to 486 from 461, while condo-hotel units have increased to 286 from 227. More than three-quarters of the units are under contract. The $750 million project is expected to be completed in early 2008.
