City Council Approves Retail to Residential Conversion at The Mabel

The City Council approves rezoning to convert The Mabel's vacant retail into new apartments at 5920 N. Ridge.

The Mabel is the former Maybelline headquarters at 5920 N. Ridge in Edgewater, where long-vacant ground-floor retail is being converted into new apartments — bringing residents and foot traffic back to the corner. See it among the projects in our portfolio.

It is part of Envoi Partners’ value-based, infill adaptive-reuse work across Chicago — giving the city’s overlooked, character-rich buildings a second life. The future of Chicago’s past.
