City Council approves development at 2329 W. Moffat

The Chicago City Council has approved a residential development at 2329 W. Moffat. Planned by KMW Communities, the project site is a vacant lot at the southwestern corner of W. Moffat St and N. Winnebago Ave. 

Designed by Eckenhoff Saunders, the development will stand five stories tall, reaching 70 feet in height. The building will have 30 residential units but no retail and will include 6 parking spaces and 30 bike parking spaces. To meet affordable housing requirements, the project will include six affordable units. 

The building’s ground floor will have the residential entry facing N. Winnebago Ave, five residential units, bike parking for 30 bikes, and mechanical space. Six car parking spaces will be located at the back of the site along the alley.

The upper floors of the building will have six or seven residential units per floor, with select units having private balconies. The total project’s unit mix will include four studios, 22 one-beds, and four two-beds. Residents will have access to a shared rooftop deck on top of the building. 

With City Council approval secured, the site will be rezoned from RS-3 and RT-4 to a unified B2-3 to allow for the scope of the project. The developer can now move forward with permitting and construction.
