CHICAGO-The John Marshall Law School officially opened its new $6 million entrance at 304 S. State St., and should be complete soon on the renovation of 19 W. Jackson, which it acquired two years ago. The college is one of a few that are growing in the South Loop, near the downtown campuses of DePaul and Robert Morris universities.

John Marshall had an official entrance at 315 S. Plymouth, and has administrative offices in an adjacent building, but Plymouth Court is barely more than an alley. John Corkery, dean of the law school, said the college was able to take over the former Walgreens store and build a 50,000-square-foot new student-friendly entrance with a new bookstore. The architect for the project was Griskelis Young Harrell.
