CHICAGO, IL
West Woodlawn on Chicago’s South Side, site of Blacks In Green’s Green Living Room and the Emmett Till home, features many small multifamily residences, the “missing middle” which isn’t really missing here. Our client sought to update a dilapidated masonry 2-flat to the Phius standard, and by retrofitting the basement, we were able to add a third unit. With upgraded waterproofing, airtightness, insulation, and mechanical systems, this property now will provide super comfortable apartments with low utility bills and great indoor air quality.
