Lincoln Yards Stadium was the working name for a planned 20,000-seat soccer stadium to house the future Chicago team in the USL Championship.Plans for the stadium, which was to sit on the west side of the North branch of the Chicago River, include a retractable roof in order to host other sporting, entertainment and cultural events. The stadium would be part of a massive $5 billion, 70-acre (28 ha) mixed-use development project, to include apartments, condos, office, retail and entertainment.

Foundry Park is a mixed-use development under construction in Chicago between Bucktown and Lincoln Park. The residential neighborhood is expected to cost over $1 billion and take several years to complete, creating approximately 2,800 residential units. The plan includes an extension of the Bloomingdale Trail over the Chicago River into Lincoln Park. Foundry Park will rely on tax increment financing to build public infrastructure. In July 2025, JDL Development and Kayne Anderson Real Estate announced the acquisition of the 31-acre (13 ha) northern section of the former Lincoln Yards development site, including the old Finkl Steel property on Cortland Street along the Chicago River. The developers are using the address 2001 N. Southport Avenue for the overall project. Foundry Park is planned to be a walkable neighborhood with tree-lined, low-traffic streets and new open green space that abuts the Chicago River and offers four-season recreation, i.e. farmers markets, art fairs and ice skating. It is expected that about 20% of the residential units at Foundry Park will be marketed as affordable housing. The planned project includes apartment towers of around 30 stories, but mostly buildings under 20 stories and also single-family homes.

The Cortland Street Drawbridge (originally known as the Clybourn Place drawbridge) over the Chicago River is the original Chicago-style fixed-trunnion bascule bridge, designed by John Ericson and Edward Wilmann. When it opened in 1902, on Chicago's north side, it was the first such bridge built in the United States. The bridge was a major advance in American movable bridge engineering, and was the prototype for over 50 additional bridges in Chicago alone. The bridge was designated as an ASCE Civil Engineering Landmark in 1981, and a Chicago Landmark in 1991.

The North Avenue Bridge can refer to one of three bridges that has carried North Avenue (Illinois Route 64) over the North Branch of the Chicago River on the north side of Chicago, Illinois. A center-pier swing bridge built in 1877 was replaced in 1907 by a bascule bridge, allowing river traffic more room for maneuvering in and out of the North Canal, just north of Goose Island. Due to deteriorating conditions and inadequate capacity, the bascule bridge was demolished in 2006 to make room for a hybrid suspension/cable-stayed bridge. The suspension/cable-stayed bridge fully opened on May 23, 2008.

Schwa is an upscale restaurant run by chef-owner Michael Carlson and chef de cuisine Papi Chulo. It is located on Ashland Avenue in Wicker Park, Chicago, and is known for its unconventional approach to foodservice. Simple table settings match the building's drab exterior and its tiny 26-seat interior. The restaurant employs no support staff of any kind. Chefs interact directly with customers and are encouraged to act as silly as they wish, as long as they produce top quality food. Opening in 2005, Schwa quickly drew local and national attention resulting in a large backlog of reservations. In 2007, Schwa was chosen to host the opening night of Charlie Trotter's 20th anniversary celebration. The evening was considered a success, but placed a great deal of stress on Carlson, causing him to close Schwa the following day for a four-month hiatus. Schwa's menu is known for unusual ingredients and innovative food combinations, such as Carlson's version of pad Thai made with jellyfish tentacles instead of noodles. The quail egg ravioli is considered the restaurant's signature dish. Schwa has received positive reviews from both local and national critics. It has received three star to three-and-a-half star ratings from the Chicago Tribune, Chicago magazine, and the Mobil Travel Guide. BlackBook Magazine says Schwa features "some of the best food you will ever consume", while famed chef Grant Achatz lists it among his personal favorite places to eat. Several critics have stated that below-average service prevents the restaurant from getting a higher rating. Schwa made Citysearch's Top 10 New Restaurants of 2006 and New York magazine's Grub Street blog ranked it among the five hardest reservations to score in the country. In 2009, Schwa made Frommer's international list of 500 exceptional restaurants.
