The City of Chicago has issued a permit for a Liebherr 316 EC-H 12 Litronic tower crane for the continued construction at 1630 South Wabash Avenue in the South Loop. CMK Properties has three apartment projects in the works on a two-block segment of Wabash, and it looks like 1630 will be the next one to restart. The permit became reality yesterday, March 7.
A three-flat has been permitted for construction next to the Armitage Brown/Purple Line elevated platform in Lincoln Park. The permit is for 2014 North Bissell Street; it was issued on March 5 after the application was submitted on November 9, 2023. 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.
Further details and an updated timeline have been revealed for the upcoming mixed-use development at 121 W Michigan Boulevard in Michigan City, Indiana. The 32,000-person city is located around 60 miles from The Loop, but is accessible via the South Shore Line and sits just over the boundary of the greater metropolitan area.
The basement is in, and progress has moved to the first floor, on a four-story, eight-unit residential building at 2435 North Clybourn Avenue in Lincoln Park. Developer/general contractor PFH Homes LLC of Lincoln Square received a permit to begin construction on October 28 of last year, having submitted their application in July. The permit shows an estimated construction cost of $2.95 million.
Earlier this week, we let you know that a demolition permit had been issued for the one-story commercial building at 1367 West Wilson Avenue in Uptown that included the Happy Wash Laundromat. Now, as of February 6, the new construction permit has been issued as well. Developer Icon Property Management submitted the permit application on May 3, 2023. The address used for the new building is 4553 North Dover Street, with the permit estimating construction costs at just over $5 million.
