Demolition is being carried out on a frame residence at 822 West Aldine Avenue in Lake View, where a new four-unit building will soon begin construction. A demo permit was issued by the city on September 5, 2024, with All Concrete Contractors handling the teardown. The home, built in 1885, sold back in July for just over $1.5 million, according to real estate records.
A demolition permit has been issued for a single-story commercial building at 1367 West Wilson Avenue in Uptown.

It now appears a new residential development for the site is soon to get started.
