Located in the heart of Wicker Park’s Milwaukee Avenue Historic District, this project represents complex urban adaptive reuse. As the general contractor, Integro was tasked with a high-stakes "vertical overlap": a total interior reconstruction and residential conversion of the 2nd floor, executed while the ground-floor retail tenants remained fully operational and open to the public.

The challenge was as much about logistics as it was about building science. We managed the phased reconstruction of load-bearing historical elements and the modernization of life-safety infrastructure—all within a 19th-century envelope. By grounding the project in operational continuity and Landmark-compliant precision, we converted underutilized office space into high-value residential yield without disrupting the building's existing revenue streams.
