A demolition permit has been issued for the site of 910 N Ashland Avenue in West Town. This permit allows the removal of a two-story masonry mixed-use building that formerly stood on the 2,775-square-foot lot. The property, last purchased on January 14, 1981, for $16,000, is owned by Khaled Suleiman.

The university and UChicago Medicine are behind the proposal which is being designed by local firm CannonDesign.

Units are now available for lease at The Rhône, a 13-story mixed-use high-rise with 31 corner units and ground-level retail.
