Logan Square permit value drops 77% to $3.2M
Logan Square pulled 50 permits in February worth $3.2 million, down from $13.8 million the month before. Half the permits came through the express program. Renovation and alteration work accounted for another 11, followed by four demo permits. The sharp drop in dollar value suggests January likely had one or two big projects that didn't repeat this month.
