The mixed-use development for 1649 N Halsted Street in Lincoln Park has received approval from the Chicago Plan Commission. Draper & Kramer is behind this initiative to replace the Royal George Theater and its neighboring structure atop the 0.8-acre site. Envisioned by SGW Architecture & Design, the project will see the rise of a nine-story building with a top floor dedicated to amenity areas and open rooftop space.
Caisson permits have been issued for the residential development at 438 W Saint James Place in Lincoln Park. Located near the intersection with N Lakeview Avenue and replacing an existing two-flat, the project was originally proposed in mid-2022 and since then has gone through a major redesign. Developer St. James Interest, LLC is behind the project with local firm Hirsch MPG working on its current design.
Updated details have been reviewed by the Committee on Design for the mixed-use development at 2033 N Kingsbury Avenue in Lincoln Park. Originally proposed late last year and revised earlier this summer, the new structure will replace a vacant lot adjacent to the future home of Lincoln Yards. Similar to the megadevelopment and another nearby proposal at 1840 N Marcey Street, Sterling Bay is behind this project which is being designed by local firm Pappageorge Haymes.
Exterior construction has concluded for a four-story mixed-use development at 2317 N Clark Street in Lincoln Park. The new structure, developed by 2300 N Clark LLC, houses retail on its ground floor, offering 2,228 square feet of space. It features a broad 73-foot wide storefront, wrapping around to the adjacent alleyway. The remaining three levels are residential, accommodating 45 rental units. These units come in one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations.
Construction is wrapping up for a five-story mixed-use building, The Porter, situated at 2411 N Lincoln Avenue in Lincoln Park. The development, spearheaded by Mike Breheny of Contemporary Concepts Inc., involves 3,700 square feet of retail, a 1,700-square-foot covered patio, and 36 luxury rental apartments above. The privately-owned Julia Porter Park previously occupied the site.
