A pair of permits issued by the City of Chicago on April 3 allow for the construction of eight-unit residential buildings at 2652 and 2656 West Madison Street in East Garfield Park. The permit applications were submitted by developer Sage Venture Holdings LLC, an entity registered in Mundelein, on November 21, 2024, and each includes a reported cost of $1,512,240.

Usually, when adjacent properties like these are permitted, their permits are identical. Such is not the case here. The permit for 2656 West Madison is rather straightforward, calling for a four-story masonry building with eight dwelling units. The permit also stipulates an “attached (2 & 1) car garage.” If that means one three-car garage or two separate garages totaling three spaces is unclear. The permit names Axios Architect as the architect of record and Smart Construction & Design Company as the general contractor. Go to Chicago YIMBY for more infomation.
