McCormick Place May Expand Parking Amid New Cornell Village Plan
The proposed plan for McCormick Place would add 180 acres for parking if approved, with space from 12th to 16th Streets east of the Outer Drive included and no reimbursements or rental fees slated from the MFEA. The Cornell Village project includes Paul Rosenthal and Elliott Epstein as partners, with Marvin Fitch as architect. The development features two 41 story towers, HR 2 site town and studio homes, shared recreational facilities, a 300 space ground level garage, and a terrace above street level linking the towers.
