Another aging downtown office building will find new life as housing.
A company called 3L Real Estate will convert the eight-story River Bank Plaza building, 740-744 N. Plankinton Ave., into the RiverWalk Lofts.
The plan calls for more than 130 apartments including studio, one, two and three-bedroom layouts. The three-bedroom units would have a “rooftop duplex” layout according to a press release from the Rosemont, IL-based real estate firm.
Constructed is expected to begin in 2022 and be completed in 2023.

The hot honey trend moves beyond pizza to spice up more dishes and drinks across the menu
As flavor trends go, they don’t get much hotter than hot honey, the sticky-sweet sizzler that has migrated from the pizza segment to become the “it” flavor of the moment.
Hot honey boasts an international backstory, in which a young American studying in Brazil becomes enamored with jars of honey that contain embedded chiles. Like liquid amber, they appear atop tables at pizzerias throughout the country and provide the inspiration for what eventually becomes Mike’s Hot Honey, the king of the category.
