Skender Completes Construction of 21-Story MF, Retail Tower in River North

On behalf of developer VISTA Property, Skender has completed construction on The Leo, a 21-story, 201,000-square-foot mixed-use multifamily tower located at 741 N. Wells Street in River North.

The new boutique luxury rental building, designed by Antunovich Associates, has 168 open-concept apartment units. The property also features 3,877 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The development was financed with a first mortgage loan from Huntington Bank.

The Leo’s luxury features include floor-to-ceiling windows, state-of-the-art kitchen appliances, in-unit laundry, private balconies, and expansive nine-foot ceilings. Property amenities include an in-gym yoga studio, an outdoor pool with lounge area, a rooftop deck complete with a fire pit and grills, a kitchen café and a group fitness terrace.

“River North is experiencing remarkable growth, and we are witnessing an increasing demand for spaces that blend living, working, and recreational opportunities within the vibrant core of downtown Chicago,” said Ark Latt, Chief Development Officer at VISTA Property.
