Last month, a new four-story commercial building opened at 1111 W Addison Street, directly across the Addison & Clark intersection from Wrigley Field. Planned by West Addison Development, the roughly 60,000 square feet of programming includes just under 16,000 square feet of ground-level retail and a climbing/fitness gym on the upper floors. The recent construction replaces a former single-story Taco Bell restaurant.
Construction has completed for a new seven-story mixed-use development at 949 W Dakin Street in Lake View. Developed by Draper & Kramer and dubbed “Wrigleyville Lofts,” the new construction comes with 13,000 square feet of ground-level retail, as well as 120 apartment units on its upper floors.
A permit was issued on Wednesday for a new four-story residential building, located at 3421 N Ashland Avenue in Lake View. The owner is listed as Michael Breheny, who has planned 53 total units, an elevator, a bike room, a loading bay, a rooftop patio, and 16 total surface parking spaces. The new construction will be replacing a masonry structure that was approved for demolition earlier this year.
Remaining facade work is nearing the finish line for Howard Brown Health‘s new Broadway Youth Center at 1023 W Irving Park Road in Lake View.
Demolition permits have been issued for a two-story frame residential building and a detached masonry garage, located at 3712 N Marshfield Avenue in Lake View. The permit’s owner has been filed under the name Westford Development LLC. As of now the property is zoned for RS-3 Residential Single-Unit District, which permits both single-family homes and two-flats. RS-3 also allows for a floor area ratio (FAR) of 0.9, whereby any new development may hold up to 90 percent of the square footage of the containing lot. As of now, no plans appear to have been submitted to upgrade this zoning designation.
