I have a bit of possible good news. 10 months ago it came out that a developer wanted to make a 52 unit development on the corner of Warren and Ashland near Union Park (

Well, yesterday a building permit was issued for it. The great news for this is that it goes in a vacant lot on the SW corner of that intersection. Architect is Jay Keller from Space Architect + Planners (

Also a little more density almost right next to the new Halsted Flats building, at 841 W Grace. New 8 residential unit building (John Hanna as the architect).
