Manhard Celebrates Chicago PD Approval for Truck Trailer Yard Project

Chicago, IL – Manhard Consulting has successfully completed the Planned Development (PD) approval process with the Chicago Department of Planning and Development (DPD) for the Truck Trailer Yard project for our client, Transport Properties LLC. This achievement represents a significant milestone in the development of our project located on E. 106th Street in the South Deering neighborhood of Chicago.

Our team worked closely with a diverse group of stakeholders, including the Landscape, Stormwater, Fire Prevention Bureau, MOPD, CDOT, and Sustainability departments, to ensure the realization of this vision. This collaborative approach was instrumental in advancing the project and addressing key considerations from all involved parties.

A highlight of this project was the incorporation of naturalized shoreline improvements along the Calumet River. These enhancements not only improve the visual appeal of the site but also adhere to the River Ecology and Governance Task Force and Chicago Sustainability guidelines. 

“We are thrilled to mark this achievement and are proud of the collaborative effort that made it possible,” said Kevin Coughlin, Vice President at Manhard. “The naturalized shoreline improvements represent our commitment to sustainability and our dedication to enhancing urban environments. We are excited about the positive impact this project will have on the local community and the broader Chicago area.”

The successful completion of this project highlights Manhard’s ongoing dedication to urban development and sustainable practices.
