Yikes! Construction fences surround "Wrigley Mansion" in Lincoln Park

2644 North Lakeview (known as the Wrigley Mansion) was foreclosed and recently sold for $4,650,000. Blue fences were spotted around the property.

Construction fences went up around Lincoln Park's "Wrigley Mansion" soon after the foreclosure sale of $4,650,000.  I may have been the first to report the land-marked property was in foreclosure back in 2011.  Construction fences are scary site in Chicago that usually means the property is doomed!

Don't worry! The owner, 2644 Lakeview Properties Llc, has permits listing typical repairs to the home. At this point it appears that it ill be kept a single family home residence but the home could be used for other means... museum, non-profit offices or even developed into condos.

Watch! Foreclosed Lincoln Park "Wrigley Mansion" back on the market, old video interview

Back in 2011 we discovered Lincoln Park's "Wrigley Mansion" was in foreclosure.  When it was listed for sale at $9.5 million in 2012 Joe Zekas and YoChicago.com received access for this fascinating video with one of the residents of the house.





Curbed Chicago has an update story on the new sale listing at $7 million.

Video! Lincoln Park's landmark "Wrigley Mansion" is for sale again

The "Theurer-Wrigley House" at 2466 North Lakeview Avenue, Chicago 60614 in Lincoln Park, a designated Chicago landmark, is for sale again asking $8,695,000 (listed by Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices KoenigRubloff). 



 Joe Zekas of www.YoChicago.com takes a very interesting video tour of the the property back in 2011 that included an occupant of the house.  

At that time, the home was listed for sale for $9,500,000 from 2011 to 2012.  A Lis Pending Foreclosure was recorded in 2011. The market has certainly improved since 2011 with Lincoln Park land and properties selling at record per square foot amounts according to some local builders. We wish a happy sale for a true Chicago treasure.
