In September of 2021, MANNA purchased this 64,000 SF, heavy timber loft, two-story building in the rapidly evolving “Makers District” of Chicago’s Kinzie Corridor / West Town neighborhood. Built in 1916 by the former Chicago Transit Authority as a trolley car repair and storage facility and formerly owned by the Racana Family for over 40-years as a fine Italian furniture showroom and warehouse. In 2022/2023 the building was fully renovated and converted into The Machine Shop | North, a multi-tenant incubator project for hard-tech and downtown service users. The property boasts strong corner visibility and favorable C3-2 Zoning suitable for warehouse, retail and offices uses.
