Updated details have been revealed as plans for the residential development at 3233 North Sheffield Avenue have been submitted for zoning by the development team. Located near the intersection of West School Street in Lake View, the large proposal will be replacing three industrial buildings that previously housed Torstenson’s Glass Factory.

The project is being led collaboratively by North Park Ventures and SNS Realty Group, with 2rz Architecture handling the design. Since we first covered the project in August, the plans have been slightly modified. However, the exterior design has remained largely unchanged, continuing to use insets and multi-tone brick to break up the building’s massing along the streetfront.

The ground floor of the U-shaped structure will include a small amenity room, a fitness room, a small office, tenant storage, and multiple residential units. This level will connect to a 25-vehicle parking lot at the rear. In total, the building will contain 99 residential units, a slight increase from the previously announced 92, resulting from the addition of studio units to the program.

The updated unit mix will consist of four studios, 46 one-bedroom units, and 49 two-bedroom units. Of the total, 15 units will be designated as affordable housing. While the project’s cost has not yet been disclosed, the development team is expected to receive city approval in the coming months. A construction timeline has not yet been announced.
