Structural Work Progresses for Adaptive Re-Use Development at 3115 N Broadway in Lake View East

Structural beams can now be seen at the site of 3115 N Broadway in Lake View East, where JSM Venture Inc has planned for the renovation of a former five-story parking garage with retail on the ground level. This Art Deco structure will retain its ground-level retail, while converting the former parking component into 72 apartment units.
