6610-28 N. Sheridan Road is a "four-plus-one" apartment building that, began undergoing renovation by Loyola University in October 2011.

The building was purchased in 2007 by developers Ayman Khalil and Kareem Musawwir of Inverbrass Funds, LLC, who proposed to rehabilitate the building and preserve 116 units of affordable rental housing. The proposal called for approximately $2 million in assistance from the Sheridan/Devon Tax Increment Financing District (TIF). 49th Ward Alderman Joe Moore hosted a community meeting on the proposal in August 2007.

The project fell victim to the collapse of the real estate market and the owners eventually lost the building to foreclosure. The building has remained vacant for the last several years.
