A demolition permit was issued earlier this week for a two-story multi-unit building located at 2849 South Quinn Street in the Bridgeport neighborhood. The owners have been listed as Optimum Concept Living. At the time of this writing, no plans have been submitted to upgrade any of the zoning designations for this property and there are no pending permits for any future constructions.
Coming in at the 17th spot in this year’s countdown is the mixed-use development at 741 N Wells Street in River North. Located just south of the intersection with W Chicago Avenue, the project replaces a one-story commercial building that previously held a furniture store and was demolished to make way for the quickly growing Wells Street canyon. Developer Vista Property Group, who recently proposed 640 W Randolph Street in West Loop Gate, used the same team from Antunovich Associates on this design as well.
Work has topped out for a new five-story mixed-use building at 4501 N Sheridan Avenue in Uptown. Planned by Mavrek Development and formerly the site of a single-story masonry commercial building, the new structure will house ground-level retail topped by a total of 59 residential apartments.
A permit was approved on Tuesday for a new two-story residential building to be located at 18 N Parkside Avenue in the Austin neighborhood. Adam Zegarski of A-Z Builders Inc is listed as the owner and published plans indicate that this project will yield three dwelling units, each outfitted with a rear metal porch. Plans also show the presence of three outdoor parking stalls. The project will be constructed on a vacant lot.
With the last of the exterior wrapping up, construction is coming to a close for 166 N Aberdeen Street, aka One Six Six. This 21-story mixed-use tower by Greystar marks the 18th tallest construction project in the city, rising 224 feet in height. Now standing its full 224-foot height, the high rise is set to house 224 rental apartments atop ground-level retail.
