A new four-story residential building has received a permit in the Edgewater neighborhood. This eight-unit structure, developed by PFH Homes, will replace a vacant lot.

In 2019, Moody Bible Institute initiated a plan to sell 10 acres of real estate near its main campus in Near North Side. Having been to JDL to make way for the new North Union megadevelopment, the offloading of these properties resulted in roughly $200 million in net proceeds. These proceeds are now being channeled into campus improvements, new infrastructure, long-term reserves, and educational endowments.
A new construction permit has been issued for 1216 W Cornelia Avenue, a three-story residential building in Lake View. The project will span three stories with an additional basement level and yield two dwelling units.
