First-floor construction is underway for a new residential building at 1604 North Hermitage Avenue in the Wicker Park/Bucktown area of West Town. Three-dimensional progress is most notable with block laid along the west wall, with some brickwork just getting started towards the front of the site. Several pallets of block and brick await attention throughout the lot, which is situated on the northwest corner of North Hermitage and West North Avenues.
Construction will top out soon for the residential redevelopment of the Arandas Tires & Rims shop at 1501 North Ashland Avenue in the Pulaski Park neighborhood of West Town. Block work has risen to the fifth and final floor on all four sides of the building, and textured brick covers much of the west and south façades facing Ashland Avenue and West Le Moyne Street.
Excavation and foundation work has begun for the residential development at 6150 North Sheridan Road in the Edgewater neighborhood. Steel sheets have been driven into the ground along the east and north perimeters as digging continues. That follows on the heels of site prep we saw a couple weeks ago, when an excavator tore up the asphalt from the existing surface lot.
