Dedicated as the Lucy Gonzalez Parson Apartments, this 7-story, 100-unit, 126,000 sq ft affordable housing complex is a transit-oriented development, conveniently located adjacent to the CTA bus stop and just blocks away from the Logan Square Blue Line. This multi-family residential complex brings not only a bright and unique aesthetic to the neighborhood, but also provides affordable, high-quality housing to the Chicago community thanks to Bickerdike Redevelopment Corporation – a non-profit affordable housing developer based out of Chicago.

The design deliberately staggered the stories of the complex to blend the building into the historic Logan Square landscape and residences. Wanting to exemplify the creative energy of Logan Square, the apartments showcase unique architectural elements. The front and back of the building feature faceted prefab panels with custom stained coloring that reflects Bickerdike branding – providing character and dimension to this new urban residential development. Supporting a cost-effective build, hollowcore that makes up the ceilings of each level were left exposed and painted.
