A new construction permit was issued by the City of Chicago on December 12 to build a new three-flat at 2616 West Haddon Avenue in the Humboldt Park neighborhood. The long-time owner of a single-family home here is responsible for the new development. The permit application was filed on October 28, and has an estimated construction cost of $500,000.
Construction progress is up to the second floor at Wicker Park Place, the latest residential project from developer/general contractor Wicker Park Apartments. Located at 1504 West Haddon Avenue, the building replaces a long-vacant surface lot along North Milwaukee Avenue between Wicker Park and Noble Square in West Town.
A second three-flat has been permitted to begin construction on an empty lot at Pershing Road and Lake Park Avenue in the Oakland Community Area. The City of Chicago issued the permit on December 31, allowing for a three-story, three-unit building at 3900 South Lake Park Avenue. On November 26, the first permit for this lot was issued for 3902 S0uth Lake Park Avenue, also a three-story, three-unit building with identical specs.
A demolition permit was issued on December 12 by the City of Chicago for the property located at 514 West Aldine Avenue in the Lake View neighborhood. With Land Enterprises as the demo contractor and Urban Edge Group as the property owner, the site will be cleared to make room for a new four-story, four-unit residential building. The lot is located mid-block between Lake Shore Drive to the east and Broadway to the west.
A new construction permit has been issued to build a four-story, 14-unit residential building at 1839 North Dayton Street in Lincoln Park. The development replaces a trio of residential buildings that all received demolition permits in 2023 and have since been razed. Some excavation work on the old foundations will be the next order of business before digging out the basement of the new building.
