The amenities package is expansive, with spaces such as chef-equipped dining, private dining venues, a theater, continuing education services, an art and creative studio, a fitness center, a salon and spa, and a large central terrace area.
Designed by Ryan Architecture + Engineering, a subsidiary of Ryan Companies, the V-shaped building fits well to its triangular lot. It has two wings that surround a central amenity terrace. The facade incorporates a multi-tone brick palette, Juliet balconies, expansive windows, dark metal window accents, and other decorative architectural elements.

Clarendale Six Corners is part of a larger development project that will replace a former low-rise bank building and parking lot. This four-acre master plan will come with an Aldi supermarket and one additional retail space just to the southeast, as well as a pedestrian plaza with a public art installment between the two buildings.
The project site is serviced by several buses and the Metra, making it a convenient spot for transit riders. Routes 54, 54A, 56, and 80 buses all stop at the intersection of Milwaukee, Irving Park, and Cicero, while the Grayland Metra station can be found via a nine-minute walk southeast. The closest CTA L Blue Line station is Montrose Avenue, which is a 16-minute walk north.

The $117 million project, which is expected to be completed in fall 2022, will include a first-phase building. Ryan Companies is also serving as general contractor for the project, which is expected to have a positive impact on the local economy.

it’s actually sorta handsome for such a Hulk. I like the new brick color they chose up top instead of the grey, feels like more of a vintage 20s color combo
And it actually looks even better in person than the pictures lead on. The very slight setbacks give some dimension to it
What every main intersection of Chicago needs. This is a city, not a mall-f***ed po-dunk town with strip malls everywhere. Beautiful addition!
I agree that the size/scale is impressive and necessary and there are many things to like here. But aestheticically the squat little sheared off triangle of retail space at Irving/Milwaukee makes me queasy. I wish they’d have found a way to more elegantly transition the building down to street level at that location (or more boldly continue the massing a la the flatiron style). Recent Chicago developments on these types of sharply angled corners have left a lot to be desired.
Will there be Sec8 available
