Proposed Dual Purpose Condominiums in Evanston
Developers John Cunningham and Tom Engel along with local architect Ellen Galland are proposing a unique, dual purpose condominium structure to replace the well known commercial area that was demolished last year.
On Wednesday, February 20/08, the city's site planning committee reviewed the proposal to build seven, three and a half story condominium units that would offer office or retail space on the main floor and personal living space above the main level place of business.
Each condominium unit located kitty-corner to Penny Park will offer the following:
Main Level Third Floor
Retail/Office Two Bedrooms
Two Baths
Second Floor Fourth Floor
Kitchen Bedroom
Living Room Bath
Dining Room Outdoor Deck
The developers are also looking to add an elevator to each unit and plan to sell each unit for under $800,000.
Currently this property is zoned B-1 which allows for this unique combination of commerical and residential use, therefore no additional zoning changes would be required.
