The Plan Commission on Monday voted unanimously to approve CRG Acquisition of Chicago’s proposal to remove all buildings on a rectangular strip of land between North Park Street and the East Campus Mall. 

The project only needs City Council approval of a certified survey map, which is considered noncontroversial. The redevelopment includes 178 apartments, 3,000 square feet of neighborhood-oriented commercial space, underground parking and bike storage, and a 1,500-square-foot outdoor area on the ninth floor.

In preliminary concepts, CRG and Lund Real Estate Partners would remove all buildings on a rectangular strip of land immediately south of UW-Madison’s Smith Residence Hall, opened in 2006, between North Park Street and the East Campus Mall. 

The concepts show 3,777 square feet of first-floor commercial space at the intersection of North Park and Regent streets, as well as a lobby, fitness center, study rooms and lounge, and bicycle parking on that level; roughly 160 housing units on the second through 10th floors with a 2,448-square-foot rooftop terrace; and an underground parking garage with more than 60 vehicles spaces and more bicycle parking.
