CHICAGO, IL – Chicago-based Structured Development  announced it has entered into an agreement with the Menomonee Club to purchase its 36,000-square-foot community center at 1535 N. Dayton St., known as the Drucker Center.

Structured plans to develop a new facility for the nonprofit organization on a portion of its 2.5-acre site at the southwest corner of Blackhawk and Kingsbury streets, where the developer has proposed a 200,000-square-foot mixed-use center called The Shops at Big Deahl.

Under the agreement with the Menomonee Club, which is contingent upon Structured’s ability to secure approvals from city officials, the developer will assume control of the existing Menomonee site at 1535 N. Dayton St., allowing for the development of a 197-unit apartment building.

An existing planned development for the Shops at Big Deahl site would be revised to allow for the development of an over 50,000-square-foot recreation center, which would be completed in 2020. 

The revision would also expand the planned development with additional land at 855 W. Blackhawk St., which Structured acquired in August 2017. 

“The Menomonee Club has been an integral part of this neighborhood for over 70 years and in the Halsted Triangle since 2001,” said J. Michael Drew, founder of Structured Development.

“Being able to provide it with a new state-of-the-art facility acknowledges its place as a key part of the fabric of the greater Lincoln Park community and, more specifically, the Halsted Triangle.

The growing residential and mixed-use plans for the surrounding area make Menomonee Club an even more important resource for the community.”
