Plans have been revealed for the mixed-use development at 1610 N LaSalle Drive in Old Town. Located on the intersection with W North Avenue, the multi-site project was originally announced in 2021 centered around the Moody Church Auditorium. Chicago-based developer Fern Hill is behind the proposal, however it will appear the team from David Adjaye is no longer involved in the design with GREC Architects taking over.
The mixed-use development at 1450 N Larrabee Street in Old Town is set to advance to the Committee on Zoning. The wedge-shaped site is bound by the angled portion of N Clybourn Avenue on the west side, with the vacant lot having been the home of the Near North Career Metropolitan High School. The development team is made up of the Chicago Housing Authority, Pennrose Properties, Hunt Companies, Imagine Group, and a Cabrini-Green resident group, with JGMA serving as the architect.
The city has issued a demolition permit for a property at 1404 North Park Avenue in the Old Town neighborhood. The property, owned by the Catherine Cook School, houses a two-story residential building and a detached frame garage, both slated for removal.
Initial details have been revealed for the next phase of the Cabrini Green redevelopment at 1450 N Larrabee Street in Old Town. Located towards the western-most edge of the neighborhood, the large wedged-shaped lot is bordered by angled N Clybourn Avenue on the west side. The project is being pushed by the Chicago Housing Authority with a development group made up of Pennrose Properties, Hunt Companies, Imagine Group, and a Cabrini-Green resident group, with JGMA serving as the architect.
The Chicago City Council has approved the residential development at 1453 N Sedgwick Avenue in Old Town. Located south of the intersection with W North Avenue and near the Sedgwick CTA Brown Line station, the upcoming proposal replaces two two-flats built in 1883. The revised design was revealed in February of this year and is being led by the property owner Danny Xin under the name Sedgwick Properties, while the architect is currently unknown.
