The Chicago Community Development has approved funding for the redevelopment and renovation of multiple affordable housing buildings in Uptown. Dubbed the Heart of Uptown Apartments, or HUPA, the five building project is being led by a joint venture made up of the Preservation Of Affordable Housing (POAH) and Voice of the People Uptown.
Renderings have been revealed for the first phase of the Legends South development at 4520 S State Street in Grand Boulevard. Located between W 45th Street and W 46th Street, TIF funding was just approved by the Community Development Commission this week. Leading the efforts are co-developers The Michaels Organization and Brinshore Development.
An initial rendering and funding have been revealed for the mixed-use development at 2525 N Kedzie Boulevard in Logan Square. Located just south of the neighborhood’s central traffic circle, the project would replace an existing property on the intersection with N Linden Place. The proposal is being led by Bickerdike Redevelopment who is also working on 5853 N Broadway.
Partial funding has been announced for the residential development at 5853 N Broadway in Edgewater. Sitting near the intersection with W Thorndale Avenue and adjacent to the Broadway Armory Community Center, the building will replace a one-story building and its parking lot. The project is being led by Bickerdike Redevelopment Corporation with LBBA Architects working on its design.
Partial funding has been announced for the affordable development at 3150 N Racine Avenue in Lakeview. Sitting on the corner with W Belmont Avenue, the project was approved by the city back in 2022. The proposal is being led by Mercy Housing and expands the existing SRO with a design developed by LBBA Architects.
