Demo permit issued to make way for project at 3600 N. Southport

A demolition permit has been issued to make way for a residential development at 3600 N. Southport. Planned by Derrig Management, the project site is located at the northwest corner of W. Addison St and N. Southport Ave. The site is currently home to a Fifth Third Bank branch with surface parking. 

Designed by Jonathan Splitt Architects, permit filings show that the project will be a four-story building. While no drawings or renderings have been shared publicly, the permit filing shows that the building will have 10 dwelling units with five parking spaces. Four of the parking spaces will be inside a garage with the fifth spot located outdoors. No retail space has been identified in the permit for the high visibility corner site. 

With the demolition permit issued, demo contractor Brophy Excavation can clear the site ahead of the new construction. Once the site is clear Derrig Builders Inc can begin new construction as the full building permit has already been issued. A timeline for the project has not been announced.
