Foundation work has started for a new residential building at 453 West Briar Place in the Lake View neighborhood. The five-story, six-unit condominium project is being built by Chicago’s GVP Development. They got a foundation permit back in November 2023, before receiving permission to complete the project in May of last year.
A demolition permit for a single-story building on North Seeley Avenue in Bucktown marks another step closer to the beginning of a new residential development for the site. YIMBY reported on 2350 North Seeley in June of last year, and now a permit to tear down the second of two buildings on the lot was issued by the city on February 6.
Funding has taken another step forward for the mixed-income development at 547 W Oak Street in the Near North Side. Sitting on the corner with N Larrabee Street, the new structure would replace a vacant lot owned by the Chicago Housing Authority within the former site of Cabrini-Green.
The sidewalk canopy on Lincoln Avenue hides much of the progress, but work is still getting done on a residential development at 3037 North Lincoln Avenue in Lake View. Promised Land Development (PLD Homes) is putting up a four-story, 15-unit building here that was permitted for construction on September 17 of last year.
A new construction permit has been issued by the City of Chicago allowing work to begin on a residential development in the Northwest Side’s Albany Park neighborhood. Assigned in the permit to the address of 4403 North Christiana Avenue, the project was approved by City Council last fall as 3318 West Montrose Avenue.
