6311 S. Maryland lands full building permit

A full building permit has been issued for Park Station at 6311 S. Maryland. Located just a block from the Cottage Grove Green Line stop, the project site is located at the corner of E. 63rd St and S. Maryland Ave. The TOD project will be developed in partnership between DL3 Realty and Michaels Development.

With a design from FitzGerald and Brook Architecture, the project will stand five floors, delivering a mixed-use building holding 56 residential units, 2 live/work units, and three retail spaces. 

The ground floor will host the live/work units along S. Maryland Ave, retail spaces along E. 63rd St, the residential entry along S. Maryland Ave and amenities rounding out the space. Residents will have access to a community room, business center, fitness room with yoga space, and a bike room for 50 bikes. Car parking will be located in a surface lot behind the building for 40 cars. 

Incorporating the requirements of the Woodlawn Affordable Housing Ordinance, 41 of the units will be designated as affordable. 9 units will be rented at 30-50% AMI, 23 at 60% AMI, and the final 17 will be rented as market-rate units. The unit count will consist of a mix of one-beds, two-beds, and three-bedroom apartments. 

The $30.8 million project will now begin work with full building permits issued, led by general contractor Ujamaa Construction. A timeline for completion is currently unknown.
