Building permits have been issued for the redevelopment of the former Otis Elevator Company foundry at 1600 S Laflin Street in Pilsen. Sitting on the intersection with W 16th Street and bound by rail lines, the block-long building has sat vacant for years before plans were approved by the city over a year ago.
The Chicago City Council has approved the residential conversion of the industrial building at 1600 S Laflin Street in Pilsen. Located on the southwest corner with W 16th Street next to rail lines famous for the street art along their base, the project will revitalize the vacant foundry structure that stretches almost the full length of the block. Chicago-based developer RP Fox and Associates is leading the proposal along with Mayer Jeffers Gillespie Architects working on its design.
