This week, construction on the first office building built in Lakewood for many, many years will commence with the pouring of the foundation at the corner of Spring Garden and Detroit Avenue.
17513 Detroit Avenue, the site of the former Lakewood Christian Church, was purchased by a private developer to accommodate a long term tenant: the Department of the Interior’s Social Security Office. This tenant looked throughout the western suburbs for a new site, and Lakewood worked hard to retain them. In addition to retaining $4.4 Million in annual payroll and dozens of employees, the new site will also be added to the city’s property tax roles to benefit the city and schools.
The new construction is located at an intersection that has been busy recently: it’s also the site of the new Dunkin Donuts, that used to be an under-used parking lot, also owned by the Lakewood Christian Church.
By the way, Lakewood Christian Church is still Lakewood. They are currently “nesting” at 12501 Lake Ave.
