Plans for several tall, mixed-use developments along North Milwaukee Avenue in Logan Square will go in front of the 1st Ward‘s advisory panel next week, according to Raymond Valadez, chief of staff to Alderman Manuel Flores.
The proposed development would take up several lots including the old Dearborn Wholesale Grocers site just east of California Avenue, as well as a vacant lot at Talman Avenue. The developer is seeking TIF funds for the buildings, which would include apartments and retail spaces, and would consequently be required to set aside at least 25 percent of its units for affordable housing.
The hearing will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 29, at the Urban Vineyard Church, 2145 N Maplewood Ave in Logan Square. The meeting is open to the public.
