Plans for a new residential tower at 1415 North Dayton Street in Lincoln Park are advancing after receiving approval from the Committee on Zoning. Initially revealed earlier this year, the project is moving through the approval process rather quickly, having also received Plan Commission approval in late March.

Efforts for the project have been led collaboratively by Honore Properties and Peerless Development, with local firm bKL Architecture working on the design. The site sits on the corner with West Evergreen Avenue and is currently occupied by a small industrial building that will need to come down prior to construction of the new 28-story tower.

The 311-foot-tall building will be anchored by a five-story podium clad in gray brick and gold-colored accents. The ground floor will feature a large lobby in order to activate the majority of the streetfront, with the rest being taken up by back-of-house spaces and a ramp up to the 160-vehicle parking garage. This will be capped by an outdoor deck.

The rest of the glass-clad tower will contain 340 residential units made up of 105 studios, 190 one-bedroom, 42 two-bedroom, and three three-bedroom layouts. Of the unit total, 68 will be considered affordable. The top floors of the tower will be set back to allow for a large rooftop amenity space connected to an outdoor deck with a pool facing the city.

Select units will feature small outdoor balconies along the corners of the structure. As a whole, the $102 million project will join other developments in the nearby area working toward delivering nearly 1,000 units in total. With the initial zoning approval in hand, the team will now just need to gain one final approval from City Council prior to its year-end groundbreaking date.

Build it. Too many little, short, squat buildings.
This and 1565 N Clybourn. Let’s gooo
The podium design is a huge mistake that’ll negatively impact and shape this neighborhoods for decades to come. The increased density is great, but not the prison-like hostile podium design.
This might unseat NEXT apartments as the ugliest podium in the city.
Man what an awful podium. Car-brain really is a scourge on the city. 6 min walk to North/Clybourn. SMH
Happy it’s getting built, but we’re also losing some classic brick warehouses and an old rooftop water tower.
This podium is horrendous. Is there any reason liner units couldn’t be used to at least soften the impact? They are shown on the West Loop project in today’s posts.
