Similar to my post walking through Bronzeville a few weeks ago, I went for a ~1.75 mile walk through East Garfield Park taking pictures of what I saw under construction. This is not by any means a comprehensive list of everything being built in East Garfield Park but just what I happened to walk past. I know of several houses under construction in the neighborhood but they were not on my route today, perhaps I may come back in a future week to document them.
I saw a number of these identical 6 flat structures all under construction, and found this article from Chicago YIMBY mentioning them.

For some reason, the permits list varying numbers of parking spots for each building, despite each building otherwise looking identical:
129 S Whipple: 5 parking spots
209 S Whipple: 3 parking spots
3015 W Polk: 6 parking spots
3031 W Polk: 3 parking spots
129 S Whipple
209 S Whipple
3015 W Polk
3031 W Polk
—————————
3018 W Polk
Will be 3 floors, 3 units, with 3 parking spots
Garfield Park Community Orchards
Would love to do more of these neighborhood walk development overviews, perhaps for Woodlawn next, but it would take like 2 hours for me to write the post considering how much is being built in Woodlawn
