North Avenue Residences
2130-46 W North Avenue, Chicago, Illinois
The mixed-use development in the Wicker Park neighborhood comprises three separate buildings: a 3-flat, 6-flat and 12-flat. Each building has commercial space on the first floor and residences on the second, third and fourth floors. The three buildings were designed by a team of three collaborating architecture offices: Norsman Architects (headed design of 12-flat, eastern most building), UrbanLab (design of 6-flat, middle building) and Randall Kober of Anarchitecture (design of 3-flat, western most building). Each building is separated by a small public courtyard and connected by a wedge shaped prairie landscape band.
