Permit
Process Continues, Excavation Begins
After
obtaining the “foundation only” building permit on May 3, 2002
the Meyne Company began work at 834 Lake
Street. To allow for excavation to the full depth of the basement parking
garage, 22-foot plates of corrugated sheet piling were driven into the
ground to form a temporary earth retention wall. Protection work for the
three Linden trees on Lake Street was completed by a tree care firm. A
“full” building permit is in the process of being obtained.
To obtain this permit plans must pass review
in several areas including building, mechanical, electrical, plumbing,
and fire safety.
North
Grove Avenue Closed
Grove Avenue was closed where it adjoins the construction site. The approval
to close this portion of North Grove Avenue was given by the Oak Park
Village Board of Trustees in March 2001.
