The luxury condominium building is the first of its size for La Grange since 2002 and revitalizes vacant land in the Historic District.
More than thirty La Grange officials, board members and La Grange Business Association representatives attended a groundbreaking ceremony for the 40 South Ashland Avenue luxury condominium building. The 17 unit luxury condominium building is the first of its size for La Grange since 2002 and revitalizes land that has been vacant in the Historic District since 2006.
The 40 South Ashland Development was unanimously approved by the La Grange Village Board in November 2014. Completion of the building is anticipated to be in summer 2016. For more information, contact Cathy Bier at (708) 567-2032 or visit www.40Ashland.com.
