Have you seen the Lakeview Master Plan? Is it time for the proposed CVS extreme makeover?

The Lakeview Master Plan was created in 2011, and out of it we have been lucky enough to get great things like the Low Line Market, People Spots and the upcoming Lincoln/Southport and Wellington corner improvements (just to name a few). CVS was specifically listed as a candidate for a makeover (and every time it rains, the roof leaks and there are buckets all over the store to collect the water, so something has to get fixed).

What are your thoughts? Is it time for a CVS extreme makeover?

See the full PDF plan from the Lakeview Chamber here.

J. Crew Southport Corridor Chicago building permit approved, construction starting this week

J. Crew’s building permit has been approved by the City of Chicago this past week, and construction will start shorty at 3423 N. Southport. As previously reported, J. Crew will take about 6,000 square feet on the ground level with additional unannounced retail above. The building should be completed by the end of 2015, although it should be mentioned that the Gap across the street took about a year to complete, and is about the same size.
