The first of two construction permits has been issued by the City of Chicago for a pair of four-story, eight-unit residential buildings in the Tri-Taylor neighborhood. A demolition permit came through on New Year’s Eve for 701 South Western Avenue, and now permission has been granted to begin the new development, although this first one won’t be on the demolition site, per se.
Plans are advancing for the mixed-use development at 801 S Western Avenue in Tri-Taylor. Sitting on the corner with W Polk Street and set to replace a surface parking lot, the project was originally announced a year ago as the area around the Illinois Medical District continues to grow. Just down the street, 701 S Western scored a demo permit to make way for another new structure.
A demolition permit was issued December 31 for a single-story commercial building at 701-709 South Western Avenue in the Tri-Taylor neighborhood. Located on the southeast corner of Western and Flournoy Street on the Near West Side, all five commercial spaces in the building appear to have been unoccupied for quite some time. The teardown directive was issued with B & K Concrete 1 named as the demo contractor, at an estimated cost of $45,000.
The City of Chicago has issued construction permits for a new three-story frame building at 2743 West Lexington Street in Tri-Taylor. Led by owner Keith Ray and developed by Rayland Development Ltd, the project has an estimated budget of $190,000.
Details have been revealed for a mixed-use development at 801 S Western Avenue in Tri-Taylor. Located on the southeast corner with W Polk Street, the new structure would replace an existing surface parking lot near the Illinois Medical District. The proposal is being led by 4Corners LLC and designed by local architecture firm Kennedy Mann.
