A demolition permit for a single-story building on North Seeley Avenue in Bucktown marks another step closer to the beginning of a new residential development for the site. YIMBY reported on 2350 North Seeley in June of last year, and now a permit to tear down the second of two buildings on the lot was issued by the city on February 6.

B & K Concrete is named as the demo contractor in the permit, at an estimated cost of $56,000. The new development is slated to replace this trapezoidal lot that extends from the east-west alley just south of Fullerton Avenue, to the Metra tracks at the south end of the site.
Another one-story brick building, assigned the address 2338 North Seeley, is also being replaced. It was permitted for demolition back on October 8 of last year and has already been razed from the site by B & K.

Wilmot Properties is the developer of the new project, which will deliver 56 dwelling units in a five-story building designed by Hanna Architects. A 46-space parking garage will be included, along with a storage area holding 59 bicycles and a fitness center. No word yet on when to expect project approval and the start of new construction.
