More residential development is on its way to Irving Park Road in North Center. This week, developer 2024 W Irving Park LLC scored an estimated $2.6 million construction permit to build a four-story mixed-use building on a vacant site that previously served as parking for the former Lincoln Restuarant.

The upcoming masonry building from Hanna Architects calls for ground-floor retail space fronting Irving Park and garage parking for 12 vehicles, accessed via the existing rear alleyway. The upper floors would house 12 for-sale residences that would be at least 1,400 square feet in size. Unit prices are expected to start at around $625,000.

Due to a recent type 1 rezoning of the property at 2024 W. Irving Park Road, the new development must include one affordable-rate unit on-site, per the city's rules.  In December, the Zoning Board of Appeals approved a request for a variance to reduce the planned building's rear setback. Panoptic Group is listed as the general contractor, according to the permit.

The 2024 W. Irving Park Road condos aren't the only new developments headed this North Center block. Other proposals include 44 apartments slated for 2035 W. Irving Park Road and 22-unit rental project at 2046 W. Irving Park Road.
