DLG Management's upcoming development at 4600 N. Magnolia (jonathan SPLITT architects) |
The project was given the green light by 3 out of 4 Sheridan Park block clubs and also had the support of the Sheridan Park Neighbors Association and Uptown United. A mix of 20 two bedrooms, 4 one bedroom garden units and 2 studios are planned for the development.
Full text of the letter sent out by Sheridan Park Neighbors Association and Magnolia-Malden Neighbors is below:
Any idea how this affects Pokiology?
ReplyDeleteThis is quite a surprise. I am still waiting for a meeting of Magnolia-Malden Neighbors Assn to discuss the issue.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see the bulk of the units will be 2-bedroom. Most of the new rentals have been 1-bed or studio. I can only hope this will draw in more young families.
ReplyDeleteGreat for the area, but wish the designers could have come up with a more interesting outside design, it is just more of the same red brick architecture all over the city.
ReplyDelete....Don't really know!! ....BUT maybe the architects WANTED to have a Blend_In_Building with the rest design for this building, rather than a Stand_Out, Different, and Alone design for this. ....Just_Sayin'!!
DeleteThere was no discussion about 24 hour permit parking. One person proposed it. By coincidence, that person is the president of Magnolia-Malden neighbors. That is not the way this process is supposed to work.
ReplyDeleteAlderman Cappleman told me that he would want to see the results of a Magnolia-Malden meeting. But SPNA rushed to the media with the result. I think we need to slow down this decision process. "Green light" is premature.
ReplyDeleteGreat
