A demolition permit was issued on October 9 for the multi-unit residence at 3034 North Sheffield Avenue in Lake View. Next door at 3038, a coach house at the rear of the property has also been surrounded by demo fencing. Those two demolitions, to be carried out by Land Enterprises, will clear the way for a new three-story with basement, five-dwelling-unit building.
An apartment building at 3202 North Racine Avenue has risen to its ultimate height in Lake View. Replacing a now-demolished BP gas station on the northwest corner of Racine and Belmont Avenues, the five-story, 27-unit project is being delivered by Exemplary Builders, who are both the developer and general contractor.
Concrete is in the ground for the foundation of 1506 West Henderson Street, a two-unit residential development coming to Lake View. A project by developer and general contractor V & M Development, the new building will be three stories plus a basement. A private rooftop deck and a rear covered deck at the first floor indicate these units might consist of one duplex-down and one duplex-up condominiums. The architecture is by 360 Design Studio, and will include a detached two-car garage providing each unit with one parking space. The new construction permit was issued by the City Of Chicago on July 22 of this year.
Foundation work has begun for a new residential building at 3015 North Southport Avenue in Lake View. Taking over a surface parking lot, the new development will consist of seven dwelling units in a five-story structure. A new construction permit was issued for the property on September 6 of this year, showing Chicago’s Advent Properties as the developer. The permit was issued after amendments were approved to increase parking and decrease setbacks.
Exterior work is nearing completion for a new condominium building coming to 2923 North Southport Avenue in Lake View. The four-story, three-unit project got a new construction permit from the city on January 17. The property sits mid-block just south of the six-point Southport/Lincoln/Wellington intersection. The Pavlovcik Architecture-design calls for balconies at the front and back of the building plus a rooftop deck. An attached garage accessed from the rear alley will have parking for three vehicles, and will be joined on the ground level by commercial space at the front, along Southport Avenue. An elevator is also included in the plans. McKinney Group is both the developer and the general contractor.
