An initial construction permit has been issued for a new three-story mixed-use redevelopment at 935 W Webster Avenue in Lincoln Park. Developed by Mavrek Development, the project will use the existing structure that once housed the State restaurant, while adding an additional four apartment units above.
Final facade work is now underway for a six-story residential building at 2700 N Sheffield Avenue in Lincoln Park. Known as “Sheffield of Lincoln Park,” the project is part of a broader renovation plan by Pihrl and the Chicago Housing Authority to renovate the Edith Spurlock Apartment complex, whose two existing buildings were originally built in the 1960s. Set to replace a parking lot between the pair of structures, the new 85-foot-tall edifice will house 80 residences to bring the complex’s total up to 485 units.
Facade work is progressing rapidly for a five-story mixed-use building known as The Porter, located at 2411 N Lincoln Avenue in Lincoln Park.

Previously, the privately-owned Julia Porter Park was in its place.

This is being led by the NHP Foundation and Drummond Development with local firm Weese Langley Weese Architects working on its design.
