Coming in fourth place in our 2023 countdown is the mixed-use development at 1114 W Carroll Avenue in Fulton Market. Located on the intersection with N May Street, the building replaces an empty lot as part of a two-structure project which is part of the Fulton Park Campus. Both buildings are being developed by Texas-based Trammell Crow who also built Fulton Labs nearby.

Designed by ESG Architecture & Design, this first tower will rise 34 stories and 379 feet tall as construction approaches its final height. At its base will be a 35,000-square-foot park with a sloping hill grove abutting the adjacent rail tracks, open grass areas, plazas, and fountains, bringing much needed open space to the growing neighborhood.

The West Loop tower itself is being clad in a curtain wall, with a gridded metal panel finish on the lower sections and a sawtooth style grid on the upper portions. The multi-million dollar project is being built by Power Construction, with a completion date expected in 2025. A timeline is currently unknown for the second tower at 315 N May across the street.

That green space is much needed in that area.
I like how this it turning out.
It may be shorter but it’s a way better project than that eyesore known as The Reed
It appears 315 N May has started the permit process. I found those details listed under 1105 W. Carroll.
