17-13-0303-C.l Narrative Zoning and Development Analysis

Proposed Type 1 Map Amendment to Classify or Reclassify 3527-3533 West North Avenue to the B3-5 Community Shopping District

Narrative ^

The subject property is located in the Humboldt Park neighborhood and is comprised of 4 lots on the South side of
North Avenue, between St. Louis and Central Park.
                     

The westernmost lot (3533 West North Avenue) is currently improved with a two-story building owned by La Casa Norte and from which La Casa Norte provides counseling and social services to homeless and other at-risk youth and families. The eastern three lots (3527-3531 West North Avenue) are improved with a vacant and dilapidated 2-story structure. La Casa Norte was able to acquire the eastern three lots in 2010 with assistance from one if its benefactors.

Provided the City of Chicago grants the necessary zoning and permitting approvals1, La Casa Norte intends to demolish the two existing structures and create a new mixed-use development to be known as "Pierce House," with extensive green building features, 25 dwelling units targeted for occupancy by chronically homeless youth and families and a multi-purpose community center2 that would include a community meeting space and art gallery, community computer lab, health, dental and nutrition services, food & clothing pantries, a drop-in center for homeless youth with anti-violence programming, counseling, social services, offices for La Casa Norte, and similar uses. La Casa Norte believes Pierce House will provide essential and desperately-needed affordable housing and services for its community and could also serve as a vibrant catalyst for additional revitalization in the area.

Please refer to the attached plans prepared by Landon Bone Baker Architects.

1                     The site was rezoned from B3-1 to B3-5 in 2011 pursuant to a Type I rezoning application by La Casa Norte for this same project. La Casa Norte is seeking this rezoning because the 2011 Type 1 rezoning has lapsed.

2                     The Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) approved this Special Use in 2012, and La Casa Norte is applying again.

3                     Basement floor area is not counted, given that the basement will be more than 50% below grade.

4                     A copy of the Zoning Administrator's prior Parking Determination is attached. Applicant is seeking an updated letter.

5                     The ZBA approved the Variation to permit this setback reduction in 2012, and La Casa Norte is applying again.
