Rockwell on the River is a Chicago wedding and event venue situated on 3 acres along the North Branch of the Chicago River in the Avondale neighborhood, housed in a repurposed century-old tannery. The venue features an 18,000 square foot event space with original brick walls, timber ceilings, European-style cobblestone courtyards, dramatic lighting, and a large patio overlooking the river, alongside on-site tenants including a distillery, coffee roastery, barbecue restaurant, and riverfront marina. In development since 2013 and opened in 2018, the complex was repurposed from a century-old, vacant tannery into its current form. Located at 3057 N. Rockwell St., Chicago, IL 60618 in the Avondale neighborhood. Couples highlight the versatile, divisible indoor space, the riverside cocktail hour patio, the architectural character of the building, and attentive venue coordinators who assist with planning walkthroughs and vendor coordination.
