Steel Begins Forming New Parish Center At Church Of Our Saviour In Lincoln Park

7:30 am on January 7, 2025 By Daniel Schell

The steel skeleton is taking shape for a new parish center at the Church of Our Saviour in Lincoln Park. The church began demolition of the 1860s-era parish hall in July after receiving permission to tear it down it on May 13. Church of Our Saviour is working with Care for Friends, a community partner, on the new addition.

A pending permit in the Chicago Data Portal would allow the church to be converted into seven residential units. That permit names DemoX as the developer and general contractor. It calls for a rooftop deck connected by stair enclosures, and a four-car garage located on the ground floor. No timeline for the beginning of conversion work and its completion are known at the moment.
