Five residential units have been permitted to replace an 1890s home at 1942 North Orchard Street in Lincoln Park. The previous structure was torn down last fall, with the site marketed as a redevelopment opportunity. After demolition, the double lot sold in January for $4.2 million to Swan Property Development of Orland Park, who will now erect a four-story with basement building here.
A permit has been issued to allow construction of eight townhomes at the former Cenacle Retreat & Conference Center on Fullerton Avenue in Lincoln Park. Addressed as 2329 North Cambridge Avenue, the homes will be built on Lot C, the third subdivision of the plot, located on the west side of the large site. The permit was issued April 2, a little more than five months after the application was filed in October of last year. It comes with a reported construction cost of $4.115 million.
Construction progress has reached the underside of the third floor at 1313 West Wrightwood, the three-unit condominium project in the Wrightwood Neighbors section of Lincoln Park from Drimnagh Development. It’s one of two adjacent properties that saw demolition of 1890s-era homes simultaneously in October of last year, but 1317 next door has yet to begin new construction.
While a pending permit awaits for a new two-unit residential development, demolition has begun to remove the existing home at 1344 West Wrightwood Avenue in Lincoln Park. The demo permit was issued on February 21, with Tir Conaill Concrete named as the demolition contractor at an estimated cost of $28,000.
A three-flat has been permitted for construction next to the Armitage Brown/Purple Line elevated platform in Lincoln Park.

It calls for a three-story with basement, three-unit building with a rooftop deck and rear balconies on all three floors. There will be three parking spaces located in the lower level. Construction costs are estimated at $1.189 million.
