Is there an equivalent to the construct polygons tool on the Advanced Editing toolbar in ArcGIS Pro?

I'm looking into parcel editing in ArcGIS Pro and I can't find a way to construct polygons from existing polylines.  Am I blind or is that functionality not included yet?  I'm using ArcGIS Pro 1.3.

The construct polygons tool will be available in 2.1

It was added this week, same functionality as ArcMap.

Not an ideal solution but would the Feature to Polygon GP tool work as long as all the lines intersected one another?

Thanks for the  response; good idea for creating the polygon feature class to begin with but I don't see how it would be functional during the normal course of editing existing data.  If all you're trying to do is create a new parcel polygon along the border of an existing polygon feature class then the workflow you outlined adds several steps to the process.  Looks like it's just something that isn't available in Pro at this time.

Thanks for the reference.  I have looked at that but I didn't see any reference to the Advanced Editing toolbar or the Construct Polygons tool--I could have missed it though.

I suspect this editing functionality is not part of Pro 1.3 but may be part of Pro 1.4.  The Pro Developers are working hard with the next release for "ArcMap equivalency" - meaning the same functionality (tool/extension/behavior wise) will be available in Pro 1.4.  From what I hear, Pro 1.4 will drop end of the year.

I am now using Pro 2.0.  Has this been fixed yet?

I too am working with ArcGIS Pro 2.0 and do not see Construct Polygons for the Modify Features Pane.  I suspect it will be in 2.1 end of 2017 if I read the tea leaves correctly.

I joined the ArcGIS Pro 2.1 Early Adopter program to take a look and the construct polygons tool is a step forward but what about the ability to split polygons using existing features?  This is another important part of parcel mapping that doesn't seem to exist in Pro.  Many of our clients are resisting a change to Pro since parcel mapping functionality isn't where they need it to be.
