Lakeshore East
Chicago, Illinois Lakeshore East is a 27-acre multi-use planned development in the heart of Chicago’s lakefront comprised of 9.7 million square feet of buildable area that includes a mix of townhouse and high-rise buildings, a Chicago public school, a hotel, office space, and a new public park. Epstein provided civil and structural engineering design and construction administration services for the development of the proposed roadway system and infrastructure. Epstein was responsible for the design of approximately 3,300 lineal feet of roadway, a 250-foot long bridge structure, approximately 2,000 lineal feet of retaining wall, as well as 16,000 feet of storm sewer, sanitary sewer, and water main serving the development. A new out fall to the Chicago River was constructed to allow discharge of the storm water from the site.
