Work Nearing Completion at Four-Story Mixed-Use Building at Bucktown’s 1827 N Milwaukee Avenue

Exterior work is approaching completion for a four-story mixed-use building at 1827 N Milwaukee Avenue in Bucktown. Developed by owner Mike Cane, the project will contain retail space on the ground floor with three residential units above. Permits also listed a rooftop deck, as well as an elevator.

John Joyce is the project’s architect, whose design features a balcony on each of the second through fourth floors. The facade also features large windows and brick siding. The front walls appear to still require siding, which will likely also be brick.

The site lies along the major commercial corridor of N Milwaukee Avenue, with retail and dining options spanning both northwest and southeast. Residents wishing to access the 56 bus can find its nearest northwest and southeast-bound stops at Milwaukee & Oakley/Moffat, steps to the northwest. Within a 10-minute walk are Routes 49, X49, and 73 also to the northwest, the Route 72 bus to the south, and Route 50 to the east.

CTA L availability includes the Blue Line’s Western station, a five-minute walk northwest.

Multiple parks can also be found nearby, including Park 567 to the southwest, as well as the Ehrler (William) Park located via a four-minute walk north. Residents will also have easy access to the 606, aka Bloomingdale Trail, an elevated re-purposed walkway spanning east and west.

Product Construction Corp is serving as general contractor for the project. While no official completion date could be found, construction appears on track for what will likely be next spring.
