“On June 23, the City of Chicago issued a permit allowing the Latin United Community Housing Association (LUCHA) to convert the sanctuary of the Humboldt Park United Methodist Church in Logan Square into residential units. The permit was submitted for approval back in December 2022, and it came through showing a reported construction cost just under $8.7 million.

“Located at 2120 North Mozart Street, the nearly 100-year-old church already contains 13 dwelling units, managed by the church’s congregation, in the north portion of the building, and the permit includes renovating the kitchens and bathrooms in those units. As for the sanctuary, it will be adaptively reused as nine units. A church will get a new roof, with exterior masonry and siding repairs also included in the plans. Canopy is the design firm behind the updates. Crane Construction Company is named as the general contractor. The congregation held their final service in the building in late April.” (Schell, Chicago YIMBY, 6/26/25)
