A new construction permit has been issued by the City of Chicago allowing work to begin on a residential development in the Northwest Side’s Albany Park neighborhood. Assigned in the permit to the address of 4403 North Christiana Avenue, the project was approved by City Council last fall as 3318 West Montrose Avenue.
Permits have been issued for the first building within the Legends South development at 4520 S State Street in Grand Boulevard. Located on the southwest corner with W 45th Street, the building will replace a large vacant lot that was once the home of the Robert Taylor Homes. This will be the first of multiple phases to fill in the overall site.
Caisson work is complete, and foundation work is underway, at 1880 North Milwaukee Avenue in Bucktown. Peerless Development is erecting a five-story, 44-unit residential building here that was approved by the Chicago Zoning Board of Appeals back in January of last year.
The City of Chicago on January 31 issued a demolition permit for a multi-unit residential building at 3711 North Oakley Avenue in North Center. Located on the east side of the street and directly across from CPS’s Alexander Graham Bell School, the structure will be replaced by a single-family home to be built on spec.
New plans have been revealed for the mixed-use development at 925 W Belmont Avenue in Lake View. Sitting just a few feet away from the CTA Red Line Belmont station, a much larger version of the project was initially revealed last year by Mavrek Development. Both the original and current design were led by local firm Eckenhoff Saunders.
