The Chicago Plan Commission has approved the initial phase of the Legends South development at 4520 S State Street in Grand Boulevard. Located on the southwest corner of the intersection with W 45th Street, the project received initial approval for its TIF funding earlier this summer which YIMBY covered here.
Almost a year after the City of Chicago issued its new construction permit, work is underway for a three-unit residential building at 2323 North Lister Avenue in Bucktown. No floor count is mentioned on the permit for the new structure, which replaces a two-story single family residence that received a demolition permit on July 1 of this year. Real estate records show that home, built in 1888, sold in January of 2021 for $650,000. All Concrete Contractors handled its teardown.
A permit for renovation and alteration has been issued for an existing three-story two-flat building without a basement at 5937 North Fairfield Avenue in Arcadia Terrace. The permit was issued on August 30, following a 123-day standard plan review process that began on April 29.
Updated plans will be reviewed by the Chicago Plan Commission for the mixed-use development at 3950 N Damen Avenue and 3959 N Lincoln Avenue in North Center. Located on the intersection with W Irving Park Road, the two site project has been in the works for over a year and has now been slightly scaled back.
A condominium building at 1950 West Dickens Avenue continues progress toward delivering new residential units to the Bucktown neighborhood this fall. A construction permit issued by the City of Chicago in September of last year, using the address of 1948 West Dickens, allowed Bak Home Development to get started on the four-story, five-unit project with general contractor Bachula Development on the build.
