The Chicago City Council approved a rezoning for the property at 5054-60 N. Ashland Ave. from RS-3 Residential Single-Unit (Detached House) District to B2-3 Neighborhood Mixed-Use District. This change allows for the demolition of existing structures, including two single-family homes and a vacant lot, to be replaced by a new five-story, 26-unit residential building. The proposed project will stand 53.33 feet tall and includes 17 automobile and 26 bicycle parking spaces. The development is classified as a Transit Served Location, being near the Metra Ravenswood Union Pacific North Station. The council's approval, finalized on November 14, 2025, also encompassed several variations for reduced setbacks and loading spaces.
