Community Meeting To Discuss Lincoln Park Zoning Change

CHICAGO — A public meeting will be held on Monday, April 29, to discuss a proposed zoning change at 1358 Webster Avenue. A developer is seeking a zoning map amendment, from C1-1 to C1-3, to allow for a mixed-use development with first-floor retail space and three condominium units above.

Hosted by Ald. Brian Hopkins and the Sheffield Neighborhood Association, the meeting will be held at 6 p.m. in the DePaul University Student Center, 2250 N. Sheffield Ave., in Room 315. No RSVP is necessary.

Hopkins said the applicant intends to demolish the existing structure, and erect a new structure.

The condo units will each feature three bedrooms with rear-facing outdoor patios, an elevator and five parking spaces, the alderman said. Units will be accessible by elevator, from the Southport side of the building.

If you are unable to attend the meeting, questions and comments can be sent to Ward02@cityofchicago.org.
