Campari Group and R2 have secured a key vote for taxpayer funding in their bid to convert a historic Loop office building into apartments. Chicago’s Finance Committee recently approved $28 million in public funding for the developers to partially convert the 14-story building at 79 West Monroe Street into 117 apartments, Crain’s reported. The committee’s unanimous approval sets the stage for a final City Council vote, which is expected as soon as next week.
