Demolition work at 2125 North Racine Avenue in Lincoln Park has laid waste to all but the foundation of the former multi-residence building here. Soon to be replaced by a new three-story two-flat development, the masonry structure received a demolition permit on November 21 of this year, with Builder Luxury assigned the task of razing the building.
Plans have been revealed for the residential conversion of the top floor of the building at 2156 N Clybourn Avenue in Lincoln Park. Sitting on the corner with N Southport Avenue, the wedge-shaped building currently contains vacant office space on the second floor and multiple retail spots on the ground level.
Five new construction permits for single-family homes were issued by the City of Chicago over a one-week period earlier this month. Located on the site of the demolished Lincoln Park Hospital (Grant Hospital before an ownership and name change in the 1990s) at 550 West Webster Avenue, the five new homes join two others already in progress, and together they’ll form the Grant Place Residences when completed. Lincoln Park Hospital closed in 2008, and was permitted for demolition on June 6, 2012.
A three-unit residential building at 2718 North Racine Avenue in the Lincoln Park neighborhood has topped out at three stories, as exterior masonry work nears completion. The development replaces a two-story multi-unit residence demolished this summer. The new construction permit, issued by the City of Chicago on September 20, names Devise Development Group of River Forest as the developer.
A permit for new construction has been issued for a new residential building at 2127 North Racine Avenue in Lincoln Park. The permit was issued on December 20 after a 50-day processing time. When complete, the property will stand three stories tall and house two dwelling units. The property plans to feature rear terraces and stairs, a rooftop deck with pergola and stair enclosure, and a detached two-vehicle garage with a rooftop deck.
