The new year rings in significant revitalizing south side developments and house flipping opportunities.
In 2025, the Chicago South Side is set to witness some exciting developments and more house flipping opportunities! Here are a few highlights:
Advocate Health Care’s $1 Billion Investment: Advocate Health Care is investing $1 billion to build health equity on the South Side. This includes a new state-of-the-art hospital at the former U.S. Steel South Works site, neighborhood care sites, and expanded outpatient services.
Illinois Quantum & Microelectronics Park: This state-of-the-art research campus is being developed on the former U.S. Steel South Works site. It will create jobs and draw new attention and investment to the area.
The 78: Related Midwest’s $7 billion mixed-use development is transforming 62 acres along the South Branch of the Chicago River into a vibrant new neighborhood. It includes commercial, residential, and institutional construction, open spaces, and a new Red Line subway station.
Pullman Crossings: This industrial park project in the historic Pullman neighborhood is entering its final phase of construction. It includes a 160,000-SF speculative industrial facility and aims to provide modern industrial space, create jobs, and support long-term prosperity for local residents.
It’s an exciting time for the South Side. These projects bring employment opportunities, open community green spaces, improved transportation infrastructure, and demand for decent housing to the area.
A footnote to URB real estate investors and flippers: Several ongoing development projects and community-led initiatives are contributing to the appeal of residing in Chicago’s south side communities, making it an attractive place for families and first-time homeowners
