Construction work continues at 919 West Belden Avenue in Lincoln Park for a two-unit condo building. The Halcyon Development Group effort will offer a duplex-down on the first floor and basement, and a duplex-up on the second and third floor.
At 1352 West Diversey Parkway in Lake View, a new four-story, three-unit residential building is in the midst of construction. The project, from Chicago-based Halcyon Development Group, replaces a three-story frame residence demolished in 2022. That building, constructed in the 1910s, was addressed as 1354 West Diversey.
A three-story, three-unit condominium development is underway at 855 West Lill Avenue in the Sheffield Neighbors neighborhood of Lincoln Park. The building, which will include a basement, replaces a three-story greystone home that was built in 1890 and demolished in May.
The famous Chicago Spire cofferdam continues its fade into oblivion, as the concrete core for the North Tower at 400 Lake Shore has cleared the top of the former hole in the ground. The core got some help, of course, in the form of a severe haircut for the concrete-and-steel cofferdam, which is being cut away piece by piece. The iron ring that appears in the photos below will be removed, leaving only the lowest portions buried deep in the ground.
Initial approvals have been granted for the third phase of the Cenacle Retreat development at 2323 N Cambridge Avenue in Lincoln Park. Situated at the intersection with W Fullerton Avenue, this part of the project has a new developer and designer compared to the initial announcement two years ago.
