Construction of Lakeview Landing continues at 835 West Addison Street in Lake View, with the most prominent signs of progress showing on the concrete cores for the elevator and stairwell. Each of those, the elevator on the northeast corner of the site and the stairwell on the southwest corner, have reached the sixth level of the future six-story building.

Powers & Sons Construction is the general contractor here, delivering 37 affordable one-bedroom units to the Wrigleyville neighborhood. The building will include a 12-space parking garage on the ground floor, along with a community room to be utilized by Lake View Lutheran Church, whose building was demolished after they donated the property to the Over The Rainbow Association for redevelopment.

Looks like a cheap airport hotel. No understanding of the value of a culture of built architecture that makes Chicago a city worth looking at.
Gray is not my thing, nor are unframed, minimalist windows, but I applaud the partial cornice and the bold Cubby Blue accents. Chicago can benefit from splashy color palettes sprinkled through its neighborhoods, as LA and many other cities do.
