Construction permits have been issued for a four-story residential building at 1453 W Grand Avenue in West Town. The owner EZMB Inc. has planned five total units, in addition to a rooftop deck with stair enclosure, a trellis, a basement, and a pair of detached two- and three-car garages, each with a rooftop deck. A zoning ordinance in 2018 re-designated the property from a RT-4 Residential Two-Flat, Townhouse and Multi-Unit District to a B2-2 Neighborhood Mixed-Use District.
