Window installation has begun at 3951 North Wayne Avenue, the four-story apartment development coming to Lake View. Located next to the Lakeview Station USPS office, the project broke ground in the spring and topped out in the fall, so this milestone moves it that much closer to getting to work on interiors. This neighborhood lies between Wrigleyville to the south, and Graceland West to the north.
A 12-unit apartment building has topped out in Lake View at 904 West Dakin Street just north of Wrigley Field on Chicago’s north side. The city issued a construction permit for the new development on August 23 of this year. It replaces a multi-unit frame home at 906 West Dakin built in 1888 that was sold in 2022 and demolished in the spring of this year.
Two rows of residential buildings have begun construction, and some have topped out at their full three stories, on the city’s Near West Side. A dozen buildings are being developed here, with permits having been issued for the first eight back in August, and the final four permitted in November. Designed by Axios Architects, the project will deliver 72 dwelling units in total.
Exterior construction progress has progressed through all four stories for 3951 North Wayne Avenue in the Wrigleyville neighborhood. Vivify Construction demolished a singly-story BK restaurant to redevelop the site, and they’ve brought the residential project up to its ultimate height in the northernmost reaches of the Lake View Community Area.
Foundation work has begun at 224 South Ashland Avenue on the Near West Side. Here, 4Corners Real Estate is developing a five-story, 56-unit apartment building on the site of the former home of Loop Lawyers. That structure, at 220 South Ashland, got a demolition permit on April 14, 2022, with Taylor Excavating performing the demo work. A new construction permit was issued January 6, 2023, which, after a bit of a delay, was reinstated on February 22 of this year.
