Zoning Change Requested – 1444-46 W Irving Park Rd.

GWCA Members,

A developer has submitted a request for upzoning the property at 1444-46 Irving Park Road from RS-3 to RM-5.  For information on the differences between the zoning designations see the Chicago Zoning Ordinance (https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/chicago/latest/chicagozoning_il/0-0-0-48902).

The proposal is to build an eight unit condo building that is 4.5 floors (47′ tall). The proposal razes the existing greystone at 1446 Irving Park and combines the gravel lot at 1444 Irving Park. You can see the developer’s plans at this link https://gracelandwest.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/1446-W.-Irving-Park-Plan-Package-RM5Initial-02-22-22-4.pdf

The GWCA Council supports this development, but will take your comments and/or concerns via email at info@gracelandwest.org.  GWCA Council will consolidate comments and will be submitting a response on behalf of the community to the Alderman’s office no later than May 31, 2022.

1446-44 W Irving Park Rd.
