The City of Chicago has issued a new construction permit to erect a two-story plus basement, two-unit residence at 8255 South Green Street in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood. The subject parcel lies on the northeast corner of Green and West 83rd Streets and has been vacant for at least 15 years, as far back as Google Street View can show. The site is large enough for additional development, but there are no other permits for this end of the block pending in the Chicago Data Portal.

The developer named in the permit, JSD Michigan LLC, and the general contractor, Summer Consult LLC, are both assigned to the same Chicago Heights address; Hanna Architects is the architect of record. Details for the new homes include a rear deck on the first level and a detached two-car garage. The permit’s application start date is May 13, and it was issued with a reported cost of $344,655. It is not known if the two units will be offered as rentals or as for-sale condos
