A construction permit has been issued for a new residential project situated at 6500 S Maryland Avenue in Woodlawn. The development, owned by Jack Properties LLC, will be a three-story, three-unit residential masonry building.
Units are now available for lease at The Rhône, a 13-story mixed-use high-rise with 31 corner units and ground-level retail. Situated at 144 W Erie Street near the center of River North, the property was formerly the site of an auto body shop, and much like other recent projects, the development has converted from condominiums to apartments to adapt to shifts in market demand.
The Chicago Plan Commission has approved the mixed-use development at 6206 S Racine Avenue in West Englewood. Located on the intersection with W 62nd Street, the proposal is a redevelopment of a vacant school building which housed Woods Elementary that closed in 2013. Now a development team called ‘Go Green’ made up of Gorman & Company LLC, the Inner-City Muslim Action Network, Resident Association of Greater Englewood, Team Englewood, and E.G. Woode is leading the charge with Nia Architects on the design.
A construction permit is in place for a new gas station and mini-market at 6905 S State Street in the Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood. This commercial project, under the ownership of 6901 Prop Ltd will be replacing what is currently a vacant lot.
Another design iteration has been revealed for 4640 N Western Avenue in Lincoln Square. Situated directly south of the Western station serviced by the Brown Line, the plans are being developed by Macon Construction, while Hirsch MPG is the project architect. The mixed-use proposal highlights a new six-story building that will incorporate an adjacent four-story structure. The project plans to provide a total of 74 apartment units and ground-floor retail space.
