A new single-family home nearing completion at 3446 North Oakley Avenue in North Center will soon build an Additional Dwelling Unit to go with the main residence. G Alan Development received a permit on Valentine’s Day to erect a two-story coach house with two parking spaces on the ground level, and an ADU on the second floor.
A new construction permit was issued on February 14 for the property at 1801 West Grace Street in North Center, allowing a five-story, 62-unit residential building to get underway. Led by a North Carolina LLC as developer, the new homes will be nestled between the L and Metra tracks on the south side of Grace Street, next to the small shopping plaza that includes Trader Joe’s and Pet Supplies Plus on Lincoln Avenue.
The City of Chicago on January 31 issued a demolition permit for a multi-unit residential building at 3711 North Oakley Avenue in North Center. Located on the east side of the street and directly across from CPS’s Alexander Graham Bell School, the structure will be replaced by a single-family home to be built on spec.
A demolition permit issued January 14 for a single-family residence at 2847 North Damen Avenue in North Center paves the way for a three-unit building to take its place. The home, which real estate records indicate was built in the late 1890s, hasn’t sold since being purchased in 2014 for $500,000. It appears those buyers, under the entity of 2847 N Damen LLC, are the ones looking to triple the density of the site.
Construction progress has reached the first floor on a three-story with basement, four-unit residential building at 1838 West Addison Street in North Center. Panoptic Group, the general contractor here, is erecting the building after being called to duty by a replacement permit issued in December. The original new construction permit was issued November 2.
