CHICAGO, IL (Nov. 8, 2016)
– After demolishing the old Lincoln Centre complex on Lincoln Avenue in Lincoln
Park earlier this year, Baker Development Corporation announced it will now
begin construction on ELEVATE Lincoln Park – a mixed-use 191-unit luxury
apartment building in the heart of Lincoln Park.
A groundbreaking ceremony
was held on November 1 to commemorate the significance of the project as the
first luxury apartment building and Transit Oriented Development (TOD) on
Lincoln Avenue, and to celebrate the positive impact it will have on the local
community.
“We worked closely with
Lincoln Park Alderman, Michele Smith,
and the Wrightwood Neighbors Association to design a vibrant development that
would transform the neighborhood,” said Dan
Slack of Baker Development Corporation as he addressed the crowd at the groundbreaking.
“There hasn’t been a new
apartment building constructed in Lincoln Park like ELEVATE in decades. ELEVATE
will join The Lincoln Common project – at the old Children's Memorial Hospital
site just a few blocks south – as a catalyst for restoring this sleepy stretch
of Lincoln Avenue to its original glory,”
Slack said.
