Foundation Permits Issued for 2212 W Lawrence Avenue in Lincoln Square

Foundation permits have been issued for a five-story residential building located at 2212 W Lawrence Avenue in Lincoln Square. The owner, filed under Deanna Zivkovic, plans to incorporate 10 total units, as well as four surface exterior parking spaces. The new development will replace a currently vacant lot. Earlier plans were made back in 2013 to build a four-story, 23-unit, mixed-use building, though these plans appear to have been abandoned. In the process of this planning however, a zoning ordinance was passed to convert the property from Bl-1 Neighborhood Shopping District to B2-3 Neighborhood Mixed-Use District. It is unclear however if the new building will occupy the same footprint, given its smaller scope.
