Plans for a mixed-use development has been approved by City Council, clearing the way for a new three-story structure at 115 S Francisco Avenue in East Garfield Park. Currently a vacant parcel and under development by Black Light Fellowship, the project is expected to yield 5,600 square feet of commercial space and eight for-rent apartment units.
As noted in a recent article by Urbanize, all of the units will be two-bedrooms. There will be accommodations for eight bike slots within the development scope and zero parking spaces.
As indicated in available elevations, the 38-foot structure will be clad in stone masonry around the first floor and brick on the upper floors. Currently, more detailed renderings have note been made available.
As for public transportation, the property is within a two-minute walk of Madison & Francisco, with service for bus Route 20. As far as additional bus service, the 126 line is also nearby via a three-minute walk south to Jackson & Francisco, while the 94 line is a four-minute walk northeast to California & Madison. Closest CTA Green Line service can be found at California Station, a nine-minute walk north.
As of now, no permits are currently processing and the timeline for either a groundbreaking date or completion date has not been revealed.
