Upscale apartments, new Walgreens proposed for Sendik's Shorewood lot
Mandel Group Inc. wants to build a six-story building with 84 luxury apartments, a parking structure and a Walgreens Drug Store in the Sendik's parking lot, in Shorewood.
That development, at the southwest corner of N. Oakland Ave. and E. Kenmore Place, would relocate a Walgreens now at that intersection's northwest corner, said Chris Swartz, Shorewood village manager.
Mandel's Shorewood project to cost $32 million, include affordable units
Mandel Group Inc.'s apartment and retail project proposed for Shorewood will amount to a $32 million investment, and will include units set aside for moderate-income renters.
That was among the new information to emerge at a Friday morning meeting of the village Community Development Authority, where Mandel executives presented their plans, which I first reported Thursday.
WALKER, HEAL THYSELF.
As a “cultural analyst,” one who opens up or loosens up aspect of culture in order to study the whole, I've learned that I can probe, enter or inject study elements into any part of the particular organism but the appropriate selection of the point of entry needs to be the proper one if a short cut to the answers is to be achieved.
MY STREAK OF MACLESSNESS
I want to send an Email to my danceserv list: Mali Blues and De La Buena have gigs in March. I glance towards my computer, though I know it's not there. And even if I go to the library, I can't access my address book until my Mac's back. I wonder what to wear today, heavy jacket or lighter, have a vision of myself checking weather.com, instead have to wait for the weather channel or WUWM to get around to telling me the temperature.
I have to make a phone call, start my taxes, send an email about French Table, send out PR for the Earth Poets and Musicians, make a poster, get some photos from my iPhoto folder printed, can't do any of it. I have some new poems that I want to type up, and I probably no longer have a typewriter. I depend too much on my Mac's robot mind.
Shorewood Walgreens faces pressure to move for new Pick 'n Save
The Shorewood Walgreens store must relocate as its lease expires, a move that would anchor a $32 millon retail and apartment project while also allowing for the redevelopment of a nearby Pick 'n Save supermarket.
The Walgreens, at the northwest corner of N. Oakland Ave. and E. Kenmore Place, has a lease with Roundy's Supermarkets Inc., which operates the Pick 'n Save chain.
