The City Council of Chicago approved an ordinance to rezone the property at 215 East 45th Street. The zoning was changed from RM-5 Residential Multi-Unit District to B1-1 Neighborhood Shopping District. The affected area is bounded by a line 50 feet south of and parallel to East 45th Street; the alley next east of and parallel to South Indiana Avenue, a line 96 feet south of and parallel to East 45th Street; and a line 113.63 feet east of and parallel to South Indiana Avenue. This reclassification allows for neighborhood retail and commercial uses in an area previously designated for multi-unit residential development.
