Full building permit issued for condo development at 1227 W. Jackson

A full building permit has been issued for a small condominium development at 1227 W. Jackson. Planned by Alan Lev, the project would occupy a thin site midblock between S. Racine Ave and S. Throop St stretching from W. Jackson Blvd down to W. Gladys Ave. 

Designed by SGW Architecture & Design, the four-story masonry building topping out at 57 feet will hold just three four-bedroom condominiums. The building will have tenant storage in the basement with three parking spaces at the back all EV ready. The first and second floors will each have their own condo, with the penthouse unit occupying the full third floor and a partial fourth floor level. An outdoor terrace on the roof will be exclusively for the penthouse condo. 

City Council recently approved the rezoning of the site from DX-3 to DR-3 to allow for the exclusively residential development. With the issuance of the full building permit, general contractor Maris Construction can begin building the new development.
