Here’s a change from the myriad projects touting views of the lake, the river and parks: Pulaskiview, from Dolce Living Homes, was set to break ground in late March, according to Anna Wateska, a sales associate with Coldwell Banker, which is marketing the development.
Located on stretch of Pulaski Road between Berteau and Belle Plaine Avenues along the eastern edge of Chicago’s Old Irving Park neighborhood, the project comprises three four-story buildings, each with three residential units and a commercial space on the ground floor. No tenants have been chosen yet, Wateska said.
Representatives of the developer will meet with community groups in the Old Irving Park area to solicit their input on what kind of businesses will best serve local residents, Wateska said. The new buildings will add density to the street, since according to Wateska the site was formerly occupied by several single-family houses.
The nine residential units, each spanning 1,680 square feet, will have three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Living rooms and dining rooms are combined in one 22 by 23-foot space, and balconies sit at both the front and back of the unit. Features include hardwood floors, vent-less fireplaces with marble surrounds, stainless steel appliances, granite counters and bathrooms with both Jacuzzis and showers.
Prices start in the $350s for the unit directly above the commercial space, which includes one outdoor parking spot. The unit on the next floor up, priced in the $360s, includes a garage space. The top floor unit, in low $400s, has a garage space and roof rights, Wateska said. All nine units are currently available. Wateska said deliveries are planned by the end of 2007.

Kinda looks like a bunch of legos
Regarding commercial tenants…whadyabet that they end up with a bank branch, a medical office and a beauty salon or, if the rules permit, a convenience store or small restaurant?
I don’t mean to be a bear, but, I don’t understand this project. The buildings are kind of ugly; Pulaski is a very congested street; there are no decent commercial stores on that block (unless you count the run down laundry mat and Valasquez Discount Muffler); the prices are way more expensive than other condo in 60641; the sidestreets directly to the west is condo conversion central – complete with a higher than average foreclosure rate. The buildings are way of out sync with anything else in the area. These are basically 3-flats with funny looking balconies. There aren’t very many 3-flats in 60641. (Thank goodness).
Did I mention they are more expensive than any other condo project in 60641???
Anyone else notice the odd cropping of the building on the right? What’s that about?
anon,
I’d bet heavily against a bank branch.

Joe, I think the cropping is “edge of 3×5 glossy” but it enables them to do some cool “extensions” to the rendering and show the height and decks (maybe hide the fourth floor that was added on next door?).
Joe – I was indulging in a bit of cynical humor re: bank branch. It just seems that, as mentioned in a couple of previous discussions, bank branches are starting to become as ubiquitous as fast-food outlets, hair salons and medical offices in the street-level spaces of mixed-use condo buildings.
Stick to Shoemaker or Belmont Lofts in this area – much more affordable and probably in a better part of town. I think those developments are even better looking. Oy ve.
