One Down, One To Go: Cedar Street Projects Seek Local Support

Cedar Street/FLATS's proposed new building at 1050 W Wilson has passed the first hurdle in the long approval process. According to the Truman Square Neighbors Facebook page, the block club voted in support of upzoning the parking lot where the new building will presumably be built.  The vote was 98 in favor of upzoning, 6 against it.

The other Cedar Street Cos. proposed building at the SE corner of Sheridan and Wilson will seek the same support from the Clarendon Park Neighbors block club.  The residents living in the CPNA area (bordered by Sheridan, Wilson, Clarendon and Montrose) will meet to hear more about the project on Thursday, August 6th, at 7pm.  The meeting will take place at Cedar Streets' corporate offices at 1025 Sunnyside (across the street from Target) on the third floor.  You can see the renderings and applications for 975 W Wilson at Ald. Cappleman's website.

If you're going to the art exhibit opening tonight at FLATSstudio ("No Sad Stuff"), you can see up close and personal one of the sites of the planned new construction.  It takes place at 1050 West Wilson.
