Construction progress continues on the two buildings that make up the first phase of the Encuentro Square development in Logan Square. The six-story and four-story structures are both topped out and windows are in place, with façade work partially completed on the exteriors.

A joint development by the Latin United Community Housing Association (LUCHA) and Evergreen Real Estate Group, Encuentro Square Phase I will deliver 89 affordable rental units to the neighborhood, located immediately north of the western terminus of the Bloomingdale Trail. Ceremonial ground was broken for these back in August of last year, after three permits in total had been issued to begin construction work.
