Details have been revealed for a new mixed-use development at 3122 W Belmont Avenue in Avondale. Located on the corner with the Kennedy Expressway and adjacent Metra tracks, the project will be replacing a small vacant lot with a wedged corner. Efforts for the project are being led by local developer Lukaven Development, who normally works on single-family homes.
