Plans for a new residential tower at 1415 North Dayton Street in Lincoln Park are advancing after receiving approval from the Committee on Zoning. Initially revealed earlier this year, the project is moving through the approval process rather quickly, having also received Plan Commission approval in late March.
Addition by subtraction is underway on the Leon Hotel at 2701 North Clark Street in Lincoln Park, as selective demolition takes place ahead of the renovation and expansion of the former Single Room Occupancy building. The building, located on the northeast corner of Clark Street and West Drummond Place, has been gutted, with clear skies showing through the top of the building, and windows have been removed.
Brickwork is the standout feature on a new condo development at 1658 North Burling Street in Lincoln Park. Though progress has only reached the second floor of the four-story building, multi-color bricks already adorn much of the first floor and parts of the second. An exposed steel beam straddles the main entrance, while a pair of steel headers have been set on level two. Around back, there’s more brickwork at ground level, though it’s not as fancy as the main façade. Pallets of block and brick await further placement.
Construction has topped out on a modest three-unit building at 1441 West Diversey Parkway on the northern edge of the Lincoln Park Community Area. None of the exterior finishes for the structure have been started, and none of the windows have been installed yet. At the alley, the lot is still open for access, with a detached garage to come once the construction crew no longer needs easy access to the residences.
A rendering has been revealed ahead of an upcoming community meeting for the residential proposal at 754 West Belden Avenue in Lincoln Park. The project was initially announced earlier this year and is set to replace an existing two-story residential structure and its adjacent parking lot, led by local nonprofit Over The Rainbow (OTR).
