Core construction has nearly reached its full height for the seven-story mixed-use development at 949 W Dakin Street, located near the northeast corner of Lake View. The developer Draper and Kramer has planned 13,000 square feet of ground-level retail space, with 120 residential units above.
Construction has begun on a seven-story mixed-use building at 949 W. Dakin Street in Chicago‘s East Lakeview neighborhood. Located across the street from the Sheridan Red Line station and two and a half blocks north of Wrigley Field, the transit-oriented development replaces a single-story structure. Current tenant Ace Hardware is expected to fill a portion of the 13,000 square feet of retail space that will be located on the lower level of the new edifice. The property and financial services firm Draper and Kramer is the developer of the 120-unit project.
Permits have been filed for a seven-story mixed-use building at 949 W Dakin Street in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood that borders Wrigleyville. The site is located just east of N Sheridan Road, with the lot sitting next to the CTA L tracks. A one-minute walk from the property across N Sheridan Road is the Sheridan CTA L station. The 151 CTA bus stops at the Sheridan Red Line stop as well. The site is also one block south of W Irving Park Road and a five-minute walk from Wrigley Field, four blocks to the south. Sheridan Red Line LLC is listed as the owner behind the applications.
