The full construction permit for the residential building at 2240 North Milwaukee Avenue in Logan Square was issued by the city on May 13. As was the caisson permit that came through in April, it is assigned to the address of 2705 West Prindiville Street. It waited in the data portal for 104 days from its application start date of January 29, and it includes a reported cost of $11.5 million. Kiferbaum Development Group is the developer and the general contractor on the build.

They’re building a seven-story, 50-unit project designed by Jonathan Splitt Architects. Those 50 units include five efficiency apartments to go along with 45 standard units, and all will be located on floors two through six, with a small amenity level accounting for the seventh story. The ground floor will include an 11-car garage, three retail spaces, bicycle storage, and the residential lobby.

The property is to include an outdoor deck atop the roof, plus private terraces for second-floor units on top of the garage roof. Those terraces and the garage entrance will be at the rear of the building, along the passing Blue Line elevated rail. No completion date has been announced, but construction can be expected to take at least 15 to 18 months from the time the first caisson was drilled.
