The Chicago City Council has approved a mixed-use development at 2600 North Clark Street in Lincoln Park. Located just north of Wiener’s Circle at the intersection with West Wrightwood Avenue, we last covered the project earlier this year when updated plans revealed a reduction in both height and density from the original proposal made over a year ago.
Three single-family residences by two different developers are underway on the 2200 block of North Southport Avenue in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. Our coverage began with the curious case of a renumbered home and its demolition permit back in April. Now that lot has been filled, and the two to the immediate north have foundations.
Updated details have been revealed for the mixed-use development at 1840 North Marcey Street in Lincoln Park. Located just south of the upcoming Foundry Park and across the river from what remains of Lincoln Yards, the project has been tied up in the city approval process for over a year—culminating in a heated exchange last December.
Two demolition permits were issued on June 30 for neighboring homes at 2677 and 2679 North Orchard Street in Lincoln Park. Real estate records indicate both were constructed in 1895, and they appear to be singly-family residences. The entity of 2677-79 N Orchard LLC is named as the property owner. Builder Luxury is listed as the demolition contractor in both permits, at a reported cost of $20,000 for both demos, which include the two residential structures and two detached garages on the alley.
Plans have been revealed for the mixed-use redevelopment of 2701 North Clark Street in Lincoln Park. Located at the intersection with West Drummond Place, the proposal sits across the street from the Convent Hotel redevelopment and its rear expansion as well as the recently revised 2600 N Clark. Similar to that project, this plan will redevelop the existing Leon Hotel building.
