The anticipated construction of a new residential building at 1101 West Argyle Street in Uptown can begin forthwith, as a permit has been issued by the City of Chicago. Located on the southwest corner of Argyle and Winthrop Avenue, the five-story, 16-unit development takes the place of the old Hoa Nam grocery store, which was demolished two summers ago after receiving a demolition permit in July 2023.
The first three-story, six-unit condominium building on the site of the former Twisted Hippo brewpub at Richmond Street and Montrose Avenue in Irving Park has hit the market. On the south end of the giant multi-space lot, 4337 North Richmond got construction started first, following a fire that destroyed the brewery, the gym it shared a building with, and a four-story apartment building next door.
A new construction permit has been issued to build a four-story, 14-unit residential building at 1839 North Dayton Street in Lincoln Park. The development replaces a trio of residential buildings that all received demolition permits in 2023 and have since been razed. Some excavation work on the old foundations will be the next order of business before digging out the basement of the new building.
Three residential buildings in the 4300-block of North Richmond Street in Irving Park continue through varied stages of construction. Located at 4337, 4343, and 4347 North Richmond, all three are being developed and built by Vivi Development based on designs by Compass Architecture. These will all be three stories with a basement, containing six condominiums each. They are being developed on the site vacated when fire destroyed the Twisted Hippo Brewing building.
The exterior is mostly finished, and the interior buildout continues, at 3050 North Greenview Avenue in Lake View. Permitted in July of 2023, this brick-clad four-story structure will deliver three residential units to the neighborhood, topped by a roof deck.
