A four-unit residential development is on the way to 2435 West Fargo Avenue in the far north side’s West Ridge neighborhood. An application was filed for a four-story building on March 19th, and it was issued on March 31st, less than two weeks later. That permit indicates a reported construction cost of $750,000.
Initial details have been revealed for the residential conversion of 4545 N Ravenswood Avenue in Ravenswood. Sitting just south of the intersection with W Wilson Avenue, the existing building faces the Metra tracks and most recently held a fitness center and software company as its tenants. However, as commercial demand wanes, residential increases.
The foundation has been poured for a new addition next to the residential building at 3839 North Clark Street in Wrigleyville. A demolition permit was issued for a multi-unit structure next door at 3837 North Clark back in January. Demolition hadn’t begun as of a February 6 visit to the site, but another trip there on March 25 showed the home gone, and most of the new foundation excavated.
A demolition permit was issued May 5th for a two-story single-family residence and its two garages at 4142 North Greenview Avenue in the Lake View Community Area’s Graceland West neighborhood. The permit follows on the heels of permission to construct a new SFR on the same lot. That permit was applied for on March 31st and issued April 21st, with a reported construction cost of $650,000.
Additional details have been revealed for the potential Metropolis Pointe development at 2601 S Martin Luther King Drive in Bronzeville. Earlier this year, we provided an in-depth look at the project when it was first introduced by local developer JC Griffin. Griffin is now preparing to finalize the purchase of the site, remaining on track with the previously announced schedule.
