Another stretch of Clark Street in Wrigleyville is preparing for a major transformation. A construction permit has been issued for a four-story, five-unit residential development at 3768–3772 N. Clark Street, near Grace Street just north of Wrigley Field.

What’s Planned?

The approved plans call for a four-story residential building with a basement, five homes, outdoor decks and a five-car garage. Newell Homes is the general contractor and Michael Cox & Associates is listed as architect of record. A construction permit was issued August 28, 2026, with an estimated construction cost of $1.4 million.

Here’s What the Proposed Building Looks Like

The architectural elevations show a brick-faced building with a symmetrical street-facing entrance, tall windows and balconies on several floors.

Older Commercial Buildings Would Be Replaced

The project would replace the existing commercial structures at 3768 and 3772 N. Clark Street, associated with Imperial Store Fixtures.

Another Change for Wrigleyville

The development is part of the ongoing transformation of Clark Street and the blocks surrounding Wrigley Field, as older commercial properties make way for new housing. While five new residences would bring more neighbors to this walkable area, the demolition would also remove two longtime commercial buildings from the streetscape.

A confirmed construction completion date has not been announced.

What do you think: more new condos on Clark Street, or more effort to preserve its older buildings?
