Structural work has surpassed the fourth floor mark for a five-story residential building located at 5440 N Sheridan Road in Edgewater. Developer Cedar St. Companies has planned for a total of 78 rental units, distributed across 72 standard apartment layouts and six townhome-style layouts. The townhomes will be accessible from the street, and will each come with three bedrooms. The traditional-styled residences will consist of studios up through two-bedroom units.
Amenities will be housed within a top-floor indoor/outdoor common area, comprised of an indoor lounge, a fitness center, and two terraces. On-site transportation accommodations include 27 parking spaces and storage for 78 bikes.
Chicago-based architect Booth Hansen is behind the design, whose massing is arranged in a U-shape around a first-floor atrium. The fifth-floor, meanwhile, is stepped back to allow for the aforementioned deck space. The facade component will involve a palette of fiber cement board, metal paneling, and a darker brick near the rear.
As for public transit options, closest bus lines can be found for Routes 136, 147, and 151 just paces north to Sheridan & Catalpa. Also within walking distance is Route 84 to the north, Routes 92 and 146 to the south, and Route 36 to the west. Nearest CTA L service can also be found for the Ride Line via Bryn Mawr station, a seven-minute walk northwest.
Method Development is serving as the general contractor. As of now, it is unknown when the final completion date will be.

balmoral. this construction has gone for about 1 1/2 years and still no date of completion has been given. The traffic in this area has been a annoyance A small construction this type should not take that long.
Hola BaltazaJustine , no te quejes tanto, la vejez es peo queja
This construction project has gone on way too long! Was supposed to be completed in 2021. Its going at a snails pace and barely any actual work seems to happen on a day to day basis! Huge eyesore!
