The Chicago City Council has approved plans for the residential development at 1801 North Winnebago Avenue in Bucktown. Sitting at the intersection with West Bloomingdale Avenue and just across the street from the 606 Trail, the project has been in the works for a few months after revealing new renderings this past February.
Two permits were issued three weeks apart by the City of Chicago to raze a brick two-story single-family residence at 2229 West Armitage Avenue in Bucktown and replace it with two new dwelling units. The demolition permit was more recent, issued on June 2 after a 69-day wait with a reported cost of $20,000. Builder Luxury is named as the demo contractor. Real estate sites show the home, built in 1889 or 1890, was purchased by an LLC in April for $652,500.
New renderings have been revealed for the residential development at 1801 North Winnebago Avenue in Bucktown. Located next to the 606 Trail, the project would rise just steps from 1820 Winnebago, announced earlier this week. The reveal comes as a new Trader Joe’s has also been announced nearby at 2053 North Milwaukee Avenue.
Plans have been revealed for a new residential development at 1820 North Winnebago Avenue in Bucktown. Located at the intersection with West Moffat Street, the wedge-shaped lot currently sits vacant just steps away from the 606 trail and the recently announced 1801 Winnebago, which also received new renderings.
Permission has been granted by the city to begin construction on the Bucktown lot once home to neighborhood stalwart Danny’s Tavern. That two-story building from 1898 was permitted for demolition in January, more than five years after the bar closed, a victim of the COVID pandemic.
