Further details and a timeline have been revealed for the residential development at 2235 W Oakdale Avenue, near Roscoe Village. Dubbed RiverWard due to its location along the river and next to the Lathrop Homes redevelopment, YIMBY last covered the project in February when it was initially announced. The project is being led by ZSD Corp, the same developer behind the nearby 1333 N Kingsbury development.
A tower crane permit was issued on April 23 for the residential development at 626 South Wabash Avenue in the South Loop. While that was coming through, general contractor Clark Construction and the crew from Thatcher Foundations were busy drilling and filling caissons for the 19-story tower permitted way back in 2022.
The Chicago City Council has approved Old Town Canvas at 1600 N LaSalle Drive in Old Town. Years in the making, this project has become a prominent example of the challenges surrounding the city’s approval process and aldermanic prerogative. Local developer Fern Hill is leading the effort, bringing the first high-rise to the neighborhood in decades.
A three-flat has been permitted at 2741 North Greenview Avenue on the northern edge of the Lincoln Park Community Area. Buckley Builders Inc. of Park Ridge are the recipients of the permit, which was applied for on January 8th and received on April 8th. The permit indicates they will be their own general contractor, with a reported cost of $825,000.

We last covered the project in 2023 when it was initially revealed.
