A five-story building with 59 apartments is proposed for the former Kindred Hospital site at 6130 N. Sheridan Road in Edgewater. The project, led by Kora Development, would include 36 two-bedroom apartments, 20 three-bedroom apartments, and three four-bedroom apartments, along with 59 parking spaces and 59 bike parking spaces.
Project Details
The development is considered a by-right project, meaning it does not require a zoning change. As a result, it is not subject to the city’s Affordable Requirements Ordinance, which typically requires a certain percentage of affordable units in new developments.
The site is located within the Lakefront Protection Ordinance area, which means it will require review and approval from the Chicago Plan Commission. The project is part of a larger trend of development along the Sheridan Road corridor in Edgewater, with several other projects underway or in the planning stages.
