The demolition we just learned about at 2224 West Grand Avenue now has the new construction permit to go with it. Once the former Rainbow Art Co. building is removed from the site, 2234 West Grand is allowed to begin, bringing a four-story, 12-unit residential project to West Town. Panoptic Group is both the developer and the general contractor for the project.
The City of Chicago has issued a new construction permit for a three-story with basement, three-unit residential building at 1029 North Winchester Avenue in East Village.

Schiller Development Incorporated is named as the developer and general contractor, with an estimated build cost of $1.24 million.
A demolition permit has been issued for a two-story industrial building and delivery bay at 2224 West Grand Avenue Chicago’s West Town Community Area. The permit came through on February 27, assigning B & K Concrete 1 of Blue Island as the deno contractor, at an estimated cost of $65,000. The building was the home of the Rainbow Art, Inc., and sold in fall of last year. But details about the selling price, as well as when Rainbow Art vacated the building, have proven difficult to find.
A permit has been issued by the City of Chicago to allow for the construction of a four-story with basement, 15-unit building at 3645 South Michigan Avenue in the Bronzeville neighborhood. Developer Urban Edge Group got the permit on February 26; they will also act as the general contractor. The application date shows December 17 of last year, with an estimated build cost of $3.577 million.
The single-story commercial building has been razed from the lot at 701 South Western Avenue in Tri-Taylor, allowing excavation work to begin on a pair of residential buildings set to take its place. B & K Concrete 1 has removed the structure from existence, and is now working on digging out the basement for one of the two new structures.
