Plans have been revealed for a new residential development at 5056 North Ashland Avenue in Ravenswood. Located at the corner of West Carmen Avenue near the southern edge of Andersonville, the project will replace a vacant lot and two single-family homes.

The development is being led by a local firm under the name Mackinaw Development LLC. The proposed building would rise seven stories and reach approximately 70 feet in height. While the designer is currently unknown, the project’s overall aesthetic resembles many others seen across the city, featuring a brick exterior, inset balconies, and cast stone accents.

The building’s ground floor will include a small lobby, storage areas, some residential units, and an eight-vehicle garage. This will be complemented by a row of outdoor parking spaces along the alley, bringing the total to 17 parking spots. Visit Chicago Yimby for the full article!
