Foundation work is underway for an eight-unit residential building at 2100 West 18th Place in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood. The four-story development got a construction permit from the City of Chicago on March 27 of this year. That permit indicates these will be rental units by specifying the word “apartments” and also calls for four outdoor parking spaces.

A demolition permit has been issued by the City of Chicago for the three-story multi-residence at 1150 West Diversey Parkway in Lake View.

Real estate sites show the building was constructed in the 1880s; it sold in May of this year for $625,000.
