25 new apartments coming to Milwaukee Avenue

Yet another new rental project is underway along the busy Milwaukee Avenue corridor. A new construction permit was issued last week to start working on a new six-story, 25-unit apartment development at 713 N. Milwaukee in the River West area. The development will also include a single ground-level retail space. Just one day later, construction equipment was spotted on the site.

The project comes from developer Michael Breheny of Contemporary Concepts with Studio Dwell as the lead architect. The building features a contemporary aesthetic that seems to match with the look of other new developments for Milwaukee Avenue that have been designed by Brininstool + Lynch and bKL Architecture.

And with crews already on site making way on the project, we should expect to see a relatively quick turnaround.
