Fronting W Belmont Avenue, the ground floor will hold the two commercial spaces along W Belmont Avenue. The spaces are able to be combined if desired by a possible tenant. The residential entry is located in the middle of the front facade, dividing the retail space. The developers hope to fill the space with a tenant such as a bakery, coffee shop, or ice cream parlor.

Residential units begin in the rear of the ground floor with the second-floor units being duplexes between the rear of the ground floor and the entirety of the second floor. The remaining two floors will each hold another two condos each. As a development with less than 10 residences, no affordable units are required and none are being provided.

The developers are seeking a zoning change from B3-1 to B2-3 to allow for the scope of the proposal. Approvals will be required from the local alderman, the zoning committee, and the full Chicago City Council. Once approvals are in hand, construction will begin and is expected to last approximately 10-11 months.
