The property is currently zoned as C1-3, Neighborhood Commercial District, while the developers are requesting a zoning change to DX-7, Downtown Mixed-Use District. The development will then be zoned finally as a Residential-Business Planned Development. Approvals from the alderman, the Chicago Plan Commission, and the zoning committee are all pending and required before the plans can move forward. An official timeline for the development has not been announced.

  1. Good to see increasing density at the western end of the West Loop. There should be less parking though.

  2. Nice to see another 20+ story building proposed for Fulton Market. I foresee 27 becoming more like 22 but hopefully the trend continues and the average proposal ceiling is raised.

  3. ughhhh sad to see this go up on this corner, its going to be such an eyesore. Wayyyyyy to big

  4. In my opinion you are not right. I am assured. I suggest it to discuss. Write to me in PM, we will communicate.
