Full building permit issued for Dinkel’s Lofts at 3327 N. Lincoln

A full building permit has been issued for Dinkel’s Lofts, a mixed-use development at 3327 N. Lincoln. Planned for a V-shaped property, the site fronts both N. Lincoln Ave and N. Marshfield Ave. Originally planned by Senco Properties, part of Chicago-based real estate company PCR Group, the site was reportedly put up for sale by the developer in November. While no announcement has been made about a sale, the permit filing still lists Senco Properties as the developer. 

Designed by Jonathan Splitt Architects, the new building will stand seven stories, rising almost 80 feet tall. As part of the design, the project will retain the facades of the famous Dinkel’s Bakery building and the three-story brick building to its south.

On the ground floor, the project’s residential lobby will be centered within the N. Lincoln Ave frontage. 2,725 square feet of retail space will be located on the north side of the lobby and 1,267 square feet of retail will sit south of the lobby. The building’s bike storage has been incorporated into the parking garage which will include 20 car parking spaces.

Rising above, the second floor sets back from N. Marshfield Ave, giving select units private roof terraces. The residential component of the project will split the 42 units into 4 studios, 10 one-beds, 21 two-beds, and 7 three-beds, all spread across the second through sixth floors. Residents will have access to a shared roof deck as well as a fitness amenity space on the second floor. 

With the full building permit issued, general contractor Sovereign Construction Co LLC can begin the new construction and work through completion, but demolition permits are still needed to clear the site. A timeline for construction is currently unknown.
