7044 N. Clark Managed By Receiver Since November

         

            "S H O R T S A L E Seven Apartments And Two Stores Tenants Pays Heat And Electric Subject To Lender Approval " reads the listing for 7044 N Clark on Dreamtown's site. The Rogers Park Metra station is just down the street from this large handsome victorian commercial building. One store front on Greenleaf and one on Clark street. Great location. Lots of foot traffic on Clark & right by rapid transit. Hopefully someone with deep pockets buys it, fixes it up and gets some decent retail in. The vintage features are many -the fire escape, weird fenced in side entrance, the old fashioned below ground entryway, and the minaret turret (so many of these have bitten the dust.) The real estate listing from Dreamtown is lackluster as most short sales are and provides only one uninspired view.  The most important photograph for this listing would be that of the building with the Metra train and station in the background.

          
The red letter in the window below the Kizza's Unisex Salon sign reads as follows.
