The Chicago Zoning Committee has approved the mixed-use development at 2600 N Clark Street in Lincoln Park. Sitting on the corner with W Wrightwood Avenue, the project is just down the street from the recently funded 537 W Drummond Place we covered last week. Efforts for this new structure are being led by Big Shoulder Development.
Multiple new retail experiences have been announced along Michigan Avenue as the strip sees an uptick in occupancy from its pandemic lows. Located across the famed shopping street, the new spots both replace vacant spaces and some soon-to-be closed stores. This comes as some major flagships like H&M relocate from their current home as well.
It’s time to catch up on construction progress at the North Tower at 400 Lake Shore. The build team of LR Contracting, BOWA Construction, and Goebel Forming continues to make headway on the Streeterville residential tower, with concrete and rebar still dominating the site.
Three demolition permits have been issued for properties on the southwest corner of Montrose Avenue and California Avenue in Irving Park. The removal of those buildings will clear space for developers Farah and Amir Essa to build their next Tiny Giants Early Learning Center facility and mixed-use residential development, designed by SEEK Design + Architecture. The new project will include school offices on the second floor, and 24 residential units on levels three and four. The learning center will occupy the ground floor.
Financing has been secured to kick off the construction of the residential development at 537 W Drummond Place in Lincoln Park. The project will be replacing a surface lot as the second phase of the Covent Hotel redevelopment on the corner with N Clark Street. Local developer Drummond Development is leading efforts with architecture firm Brininstool + Lynch on the design.
