Confirmed: Sephora is coming to 3401 N. Southport Avenue

After months of speculation, Sephora will be coming to Southport\’s newest development at 3401 N. Southport Avenue, the former homes of Rise Sushi and Galleria Liquors.

3401 N. Southport will be a 30 unit rental building with first floor commercial space and seven parking spaces for this site. The developers have taken advantage of the City’s new Transit Oriented Development Ordinance which incentivizes density near transit centers and allows for a reduction in the required parking spaces.

Sephora is a Paris–based French multinational chain of personal care and beauty stores founded in Limoges in 1969. Featuring nearly 300 brands, along with its own private label, Sephora offers beauty products including cosmetics, skincare, body, fragrance, nail color, beauty tools, and haircare.

Galleria Liquors will also be returning in the second retail space closer to the CTA entrance.

Proposed Plans for 3347-49 N. Southport Avenue

After years of being abandoned, there are finally proposed plans for a transit-oriented development with retail at 3347-3349 N. Southport Avenue.

3347-49 N. Southport – Current Building

From Ald. Tom Tunney’s Website:

“3347-49 North Southport Avenue

The applicant wishes to rezone the property to construct a proposed 6-story mixed-use building with 1 ground floor commercial space (4,230 sq. ft.),

35 residential units and 36 bike parking stalls.
