A two-unit residential building is in the midst of construction at 1024 West 19th Street in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood in the Lower West Side Community Area. The City of Chicago issued a construction permit for the site on February 14 of this year. It is replacing an empty lot bordered on two sides by alleyways. Real estate records show the lot last sold in June 2023 for $185,000; estimated cost for the new construction is $436,000.

Designed by Vari Architects, the three-story building will include a basement and a rooftop deck. A detached two-car garage will be accessed from the alley along the side of the homes, rather than the alley that runs behind the building and parallel to 19th Street. The building permit lists Thomond Development as the developer, and Shannonside Development as the general contractor. The Irish handles and matching 60607 zip codes indicate they may be the same company.
