New details have been revealed for mixed-use development at 37 S Sangamon Street in the West Loop. Located on the northeast corner with W Monroe Street and replacing a vacant lot, the development team has come back with a completely new design. Said team is composed of local developer Fern Hill and Free Market Ventures.
Last week, Precision Excavation began demolishing the two-story mixed-use brick building at 4634 N Western Avenue in Lincoln Square, clearing the way for a residential development to begin construction. The new project by the Macon Construction Group has been approved, though not yet permitted, and will see a new six-story building link to the existing four-story structure at 4642 N Western Avenue.
Initial renderings and plans have been revealed for the massive redevelopment of the United Center parking lots in the Near West Side. Roughly bound by S Damen Avenue to the west and S Paulina Street to the east, the multi-phase project has been years in the making. Efforts for the masterplan are being led by the Reinsdorf and Wirtz families, owners of the Bulls and Blackhawks respectively.
Construction is underway on an eight-story, 77-unit residential building at 5035 N Sheridan Road in Uptown. Issued in September of last year, the construction permit from the City of Chicago also calls for a single retail space on the ground floor. According to plans approved by the Chicago Plan Commission in August of last year, there will be 39 parking spaces for cars and 77 spaces for bicycles.
Construction of a three-story building containing six new condos continues at 3121 North Clybourn Avenue in the North Center Community Area of Chicago. Platinum Homes Development, which is also the general contractor, is building the residences next door to another six-unit building that is very close to opening.
