3300 N. Clark Transit Oriented Development Proposal

Another TOD development is in the discussion stage for Lakeview at 3300 N. Clark St. This location is currently home to a parking lot and the Lakeview Learning Center, which would be demolished if this development is approved. According to Curbed Chicago,

“As proposed, the nine-story structure would reach 108 feet to the top of its architectural parapet. An earlier version of the project shared with the local Hawthorne Neighbors group topped out at 127 feet but was ultimately shortened and redesigned with a facade calling for more brick and less glass. To minimize traffic disruptions on Clark, the development would place its residential lobby on School Street and garage access off of its rear alleyway. The 3300 N. Clark project would feature its required affordable units on-site. The plan will require City approval to move forward.”

Additional information can be found on Tom Tunney’s Website.

Updated: We hear this project will now begin in the second half of 2020.

ICYMI, Rise Sushi and Galleria Liqueurs will be replaced with construction starting sometime in 2018 with this mixed-use Transit Oriented Development (TOD). Rise Sushi currently has a lease until the end of 2017 (but this development was first proposed in 2014 and approved by Tom Tunney). There are two other TOD developments currently coming to Southport. 3647 N. Southport has recently been approved, and 3334 N. Southport is currently under construction. You can read more about TOD developments here from Curbed Chicago.
