A construction permit has been issued to build a three-story plus basement, two-unit residential building at 2966 North Oakley Avenue in North Center. The permit names the current home owner as the developer, who applied for the permit to build on March 7th. Permission was granted on May 30th with a reported construction cost of $1.1 million.
Site context, via Google Maps
The permit names Besch Design Ltd as the architect of record. There are no details about the residential structure, but a detached masonry two-car garage will be erected on the alley that doglegs from Nelson Street down to Oakley Avenue. The site is currently improved with a two-story frame residence, so a demolition permit will have to come through to clear the lot. With four levels containing just two units, it is anticipated this will be one duplex-down and one duplex-up condo. Rye Builders Inc is the general contractor.
