Demolition permits have been issued for the removal of a two-story multi-unit building located at 2921 N Southport Avenue in the Lake View neighborhood. The current structure has a frame exterior and is accompanied by a detached frame garage which has also been slated for removal. The permit lists the McKinney Group as the owner. No plans for any upcoming builds have been submitted.
Updated plans have been revealed for the mixed-use development at 1338 W Lake Street in the West Loop. Originally announced via a zoning application in September 2022, the new structure will be located on the northeast corner with N Ada Street bound by the CTA tracks to the south while replacing a multi-story industrial structure currently occupying the lot. Developer Cedar Street Companies is working with local architecture firm SCB on its design located on the western edge of the expanding neighborhood.
Many of the I-beam exterior pieces have now been installed along 1012 W Addison Street, a new three-story sportsbook betting addition to Wrigley Field in Lake View. The Chicago Cubs and Marquee Development are spearheading an extension to the iconic stadium oriented around sports betting, whose ban in the city was recently lifted. Owing to this new ordinance, the five major sports stadiums in the city have now facilitated their own betting operations.
Permits have been issued for a new three-story residential building to be located at 5948 S Prairie Avenue in the Grand Boulevard neighborhood. The owner is listed as Roz Holdings LLC and plans indicate this project will house three units, each outfitted with a rear porch. The permits include a detached three-vehicle garage. The development will replace a vacant lot.
Related Midwest has unveiled a new proposal for 725 W Randolph Street, a now 41-story skyscraper poised for the southeast corner of Fulton Market District. The mixed-use project has steered toward a more commercial angle over its last two building iterations, which would have yielded a 370-apartment residential component in addition to office space and a hotel. While apartment demand has blossomed following the reversal of a new housing moratorium in the district, the office market has also seen a recent surge of new companies into the neighborhood’s growing collection of large floor-plate towers.
