A permit has been issued by the city of Chicago to erect a four-story, 14-unit building on the northwest corner of Normal Avenue and 26th Street in Bridgeport. The permit, addressed as 2552 South Normal Avenue, was applied for on May 13, 2024 and issued on September 24, although it was re-issued with the same specifications on October 2. It comes with a reported cost of $1.2 million.

CCTZ Investments LLC is named as the property owner and developer, and they hired Vari Architects to draw up plans for the project. The first floor of the building will include an 11-car garage, and three additional parking spaces will be included outside along with a masonry trash enclosure. Interstate Mechanical & Construction, Inc is assigned to general contractor duties. It is presumed these will be rental apartments.
The construction site has been vacant since the city issued an emergency demolition permit for a brick three-story warehouse and office building at 500 West 26th Street back in February 2022.
