The foundation is in the ground for the fast-moving residential development at 4650 North Magnolia Avenue in Uptown. Little more than a month ago, there was an 1890-built frame residence on this lot. But that was dispatched within a week’s time after a demolition permit came through on April 6, and the site was excavated immediately for new construction.
The Chicago City Council has approved the mixed-use proposal at 1338 West Lake Street in the West Loop. In the works for a few years now, the high-rise would sit on the corner with North Ada Street and replace a large vacant lot that formerly housed Hindman Auctioneers until its demolition late last year. Plans were also approved by the Plan Commission earlier this year.
Construction progress has reached the third floor on a four-story plus basement residential building at 1150 West Diversey Parkway on the south edge of Lake View. JEK Development of Glen Ellyn is erecting two units here, likely condominiums, and will add a two-car garage at the rear of the property once structural work is mostly complete on the residences.
The Chicago City Council has approved zoning for the upcoming mixed-use affordable development at 3251 West Division Street in Humboldt Park. Revealed earlier this year at the intersection with North Spaulding Avenue, the project would replace a large vacant lot on the western end of the neighborhood.
A demolition permit that had been pending since the end of March has come through for 2415 West Cortland Street in Logan Square, clearing the site for redevelopment. TBBM Management LLC of South Beloit is the recipient of the permit, which was issued on May 20. Forge Excavation & Demolition of Bannockburn is named as the demo contractor at a reported cost of $18,000.
