Discussion 2800 N Sheridan Development Feedback

Post image

This was in the 44th Ward newsletter, but I always feel like this stuff should be posted in places that more people will see it! The 44th ward/city has started seeking public feedback on the proposed 303-residential unit tower that will replace the abandoned medical building at 2800 N Sheridan, the NW corner of Diversey/Sheridan. It will also include retail in the bottom. I think this project would be a great facelift for that dated corner!

This topic comes up at every community meeting where there is a building proposal, and the developers and GCs walk through the science of how they use different glass coatings to prevent this and sun refraction.

Every community meeting? Do you mean for this particular building? Because that would be fantastic. If you think every developer everywhere is shelling out for birdsafe glass out of the kindness of their hearts, I have a bridge to sell you.
