Three condominium units at 2115 North Damen Avenue in Bucktown are nearing completion, in anticipation of being open for owners to move in this fall. The four-story building, being built by K/S Homes of Chicago, got a new construction permit from the City of Chicago on March 23, 2022. Two additional permits, one in December 2023 and one in March of this year, were issued to address changes in contractors.
Two demolition permits have been issued to get a new development started at 4529 North Western Avenue in Lincoln Square. When we visited the site last month, demolition fencing was already up in anticipation of work getting started. And now it officially can, with the City of Chicago permitting both teardown on Thursday, September 12.
Construction is underway on a new residential development on the southwest corner of Washtenaw Avenue and Fullerton Avenue in the Logan Square neighborhood. 2354 North Washtenaw Avenue will be a five-story, 20 unit building from developer and general contractor Wilmot Construction. They got a permit to replace a surface parking lot on July 2 of this year, which also lists Hanna Architects as building designers.
In August, we told you about a permit issued for new construction at 2129 North Damen Avenue in Bucktown, and now two demolition permits have been issued to get that development started. The City of Chicago signed off on the wrecking ball for 2127 and 2129 North Damen on Friday, September 6. Both buildings have been boarded up and empty for some time now, and this makes their demises official.
Zoning has been approved for the mixed-use development at 1101 W Berwyn Avenue on the southern end of Edgewater. Sitting on the intersection with N Winthrop Avenue, the project will replace a vacant lot next to the CTA tracks. The team at Panoptic Group is leading the efforts for the development with local firm Hanna Architects serving as the designers.
