Construction has commenced on a new office building in River North. Developed by Schnitzer West at 3615 Delgany, The Current will rise a total of 12-stories and provide 238,000 square feet of office space. While the office market still seems a bit up in the air, there appears to be a demand for premium office space around Downtown and River North.

Currently, excavation is taking place for the underground parking structure. A tower crane was also recently erected at the project site making this the fourth new crane for River North in recent weeks. Here are a few aerials of the project, including a ground-level photo.

Below is a rendering refresher of The Current. The architect on record is Davis Partnership.

All things considered, with the events over the past year, it is great to see all these new projects take off this year.
