Episode 4: Exploring Eaton Workshop hotels and the TMT project in Hawaii.

In this week’s podcast we take a special look at Lincoln Yards, a $5 billion dollar mixed-use project from Sterling Bay, a Chicago-based developer who has been on a tear lately.  

Based on Chicago’s north side, Lincoln Yards will be part multifamily housing, part retail, part office space and part hotel.

Reimagining the former Finkl Steel site into a 54 acre project with over 12 million square feet of mixed-use space, the development includes 5,000 residential units and 400-500 hotel rooms.
