A new development has been approved at 3179 N. Clark Street called Lakeview Connection. This is currently the site of Fifth Third Bank’s drive through, and will include a smaller version of the branch, with several more retail spaces available.

A grocery store tenant has taken the second floor, and the rumor is that it will be Amazon Fresh.
More information can be found here at this link from CBRE.
Planned by Hubbard Street Group, the new construction will produce a two-story development rising 48 feet. The building will include approximately 59,000 square feet of new retail or commercial space. Over 20,000 square feet of that will be located on the ground floor with an approximate frontage of 295 feet along W. Belmont Avenue.

The building will feature underground parking for tenants and visitors. The garage will be accessed off of N. Clark Street, with loading accessed off of N. Halsted Street.
