Lakeshore East Entry Monuments Going Red for Blackhawks
Catching the spirit of the city’s excitement over the Chicago Blackhawk’s quest for the 2010 Stanley Cup, Magellan Development Group has turned the entry monuments to its Lakeshore East complex bright red.
The entry monuments to the $4 billion complex at Field Drive and Randolph St. are ordinarily green and blue, but for the duration of the quest to be champions of the National Hockey League they will be bright red.
“I’m sure that most of our residents are Blackhawk fans and will support this brief exchange of colors,” said Robin Loewenberg Berger, Magellan’s chief marketing officer.

This month, Magellan will throw a “Spring Fling” fundraiser for our charitable partner Chicago Youth Programs. In Aqua, the home of our newest Chicago condos for sale and apartments for rent, we’ll host an evening of cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, dinner stations, live and silent auctions and live entertainment by the band Dr. Bombay! Along with our co-sponsor National City Bank, we’re planning an evening for our attendees to enjoy that will also generate funding for the worthy work of Chicago Youth Programs.
Chicago Youth Programs (CYP) works to improve the health and life opportunities of at-risk youth. In the past 26 years, CYP has served Chicago’s underprivileged youth in some of the most impoverished communities– Cabrini Green, Washington Park and Uptown/Rogers Park. Youth programs assist these kids from birth until college, helping them achieve excellence in their school work and encouraging them to pursue higher education.

Living in a Lakeshore East means more than just picking a Chicago apartment or condo. Our Chicago developments make up a community on the New East Side, and as a community, we like to work together to give back the best we can! One of our biggest charitable efforts is just around the corner in May– the Chicago Spring Half Marathon that benefits Northwestern University Brain Tumor Institute. But our company and our residents are involved in charity all over the city in addition to our yearly events.
Our big springtime event features a half marathon, 10K and junior dash, and proceeds go to the Northwestern University Brain Tumor Institute. Last year’s race attracted nearly 2,500 attendees and participants. The race allows the community to contribute to the Institute in a number of ways other than actually running– monetary donations, joining a fundraising team, volunteering at the event, sponsoring a race team or VIP Event Donor Packages all allow companies and individuals to support the cause.
