An official ribbon cutting was held yesterday for the completed first phase of Encuentro Square in Logan Square. Made up of two buildings at 3759 W Cortland Street and 1844 N Ridgeway Avenue, the project sits at the western end of the 606 Trail and at the nexus of Logan Square, Hermosa, and Humboldt Park.
Construction is underway for a residential project in Humboldt Park that has changed hands since its building permit was issued. At 2636 West Evergreen Avenue, three new units are on the way, more than half a decade after the building they’re replacing was permitted for demolition.
Concrete cores have risen to the top, and now the rest of 1237 North California Avenue will catch up, as construction continues in Humboldt Park. The Hispanic Housing Development Corporation, a nonprofit developer, is bringing 40 new residential units in a six-story building on the northeast corner of California and Crystal Street. Path Construction is the general contractor on the nearly $21 million project.
A building permit was issued on January 27 to allow construction of a two-story with basement, two-unit residential project at 1044 North Springfield Avenue in the Humboldt Park neighborhood. GT Alternatives, an LLC registered to an address on Clark Street in Lincoln Park, is named in the permit as the developer and general contractor.
A residential development delivering 12 new units across the street from Humboldt Park is underway at 1604 North Francisco Avenue. Located on the northwest corner of North and Francisco Avenues, the five-story elevator building will include nine parking spaces in the first level, with a roof deck, stair enclosures, and elevator overrun atop the fifth floor.
