Progress is starting to rise from the ground for the residential development at Western and Sunnyside Avenues in the Lincoln Square neighborhood. Permitted last fall as 2405 West Sunnyside, 4454 North Western is being built by Platinum Homes Development Corporation, who is serving as both the general contractor and the developer.
The residential development at 455 North Carpenter Street in West Town received its full building permit on Wednesday, February 19. Range Group is erecting a five-story, 72-unit building designed by Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture here, with one retail space, a residential lobby, bike storage, and a 33-space parking garage on the first floor. The permit application is dated October 11, 2024, and shows an estimated cost for this phase of construction of $17 million.
A pair of three-story, three-unit buildings are at opposite ends of their development at 2469 and 2471 North Clybourn Avenue in Lincoln Park. Urbanscape Development LLC is erecting the two buildings, based on designs by architect of record Angelica Borromeo. We stopped by on a snowy morning last week to check on their progress.
A new single-family home nearing completion at 3446 North Oakley Avenue in North Center will soon build an Additional Dwelling Unit to go with the main residence. G Alan Development received a permit on Valentine’s Day to erect a two-story coach house with two parking spaces on the ground level, and an ADU on the second floor.
The single-story commercial building has been razed from the lot at 701 South Western Avenue in Tri-Taylor, allowing excavation work to begin on a pair of residential buildings set to take its place. B & K Concrete 1 has removed the structure from existence, and is now working on digging out the basement for one of the two new structures.
