In answer to Rascacielo\'s query, yes they are demolishing (have already most of it) the newest entrance First Capital built on Yorkville for their upscale indoor mall. More\'s the pity because it was a very convenient way to enter. Anyway as can be seen in these photos of 4-30-2022, demolition is just about done now.

Is there a plan to rebuild the entrance? Even if there's one, 5 years is a long time - I wonder how the food court and shops on the south end of the mall will fare without a direct link to Yorkville Ave.

Which got me wondering...............

There are currently no permits in place for further work here..........Shoring/foundation and above-grade permits of assorted descriptions are 'under review'.
