A. Finkl & Sons Steel or Finkl Steel is a steel mill that operates in the South Side of Chicago (previously the Near North Side) [1] and has been in business since 1879 [2] or 1880. [3] [4]
The main mill operated along a roughly 22- acre lot along the eastern portion of the Chicago River in the Lincoln Park neighborhood for over 112 years before being demolished. [5] The Lincoln Park location was Chicago's oldest steel mill. [6]
In 2006, it bought the site of the former Verson Steel on Chicago's South Side. [7] It was purchased by the Swiss Steel Group in 2008, and has since operated from that location. [8] [9]
In 2016, real estate developer Sterling Bay purchased the Lincoln Park site for a sum believed to be over $100 million [10] and renamed the site to Lincoln Yards. [11]
