Significant facade progress has been made for a new four-story mixed-use project at 3355 N Southport Avenue in Lake View, where it is replacing a former two-story building. This transit-oriented development, undertaken by Harris Properties, will feature approximately 3,700 square feet of commercial space, along with six residential units above. The retail component will be distributed between the ground floor and a basement level.

The design, standing at a total height of 55 feet, is the work of Jonathan Splitt Architects. The building’s red brick facade will be complemented by dark metal accents, gray brick spandrels, and balconies with glass railings at both the front and rear of the structure.

I don’t see doors into the primary bedroom in units 2, 4, and 6. That might hurt sales.
Ugly AF
I wish they replaced the dark brick with dark metal panels, would’ve looked much better.
This is sooooo boring and banal. So much of Lincoln Park and like neighborhoods are being destroyed by these banal simple buildings.
Forget the door to the Primary Bedroom: The kitchen is designed so the main path from the front door to the Living Room is directly through the work area of the Kitchen. Let’s see, frying fish but have to let the guests through!! (the plan could have been reworked by flipping the kitchen). TERRIBLE and, another blocky building on the Chicago streetscape with no grace or details.
