Anoosh Varda is the filing owner, whose exact plans have not yet been revealed. However, the property is zoned under the B1-1 Neighborhood Shopping District, which allows for retail storefronts and apartments above the ground floor. As far as density, B1-1 permits a floor area ratio of 1.2, whereby any new building may have up to 1.2 times the floor area of the containing lot. It is unclear if the owner will seek to amend the current zoning designation.
For nearby bus transit, the intersection of Cicero & George is available less than a two-minute walk north, with north and southbound stops for Route 54. Additionally, service for Route 76 can also be found via a two-minute walk south to Diversey & Cicero.
