An undistinguished building on Farwell gets the sledgehammer treatment. By Michael Horne - Jan 1st, 2021 03:32 pm //end headline wrapper ?>Demolition of the Farwell & Royall Building. Photo by Michael Horne.
A notably undistinguished midcentury office building at 1744 N. Farwell Ave. is being demolished as of this writing, and will be replaced with a surface parking lot for employees of its owner, Saint John’s Communities, Inc., operator of Saint John’s on the Lake, a retirement community located immediately to the east on N. Prospect Ave.
The trend these days is for buildings to replace surface parking lots, and Saint John’s has done its part over the past decade replacing the employee parking lots that flanked its original 1840 N. Prospect Ave. building with two towers, the most recent of which opened in 2020.
