New renderings have been revealed for the multi-tower Fulton Bond development at 1325 West Fulton Street in the Fulton Market District. Bound by North Ada Street to the west and North Elizabeth Street to the east, the block-long development was originally revealed in late 2024 and has recently completed its on-site sales center as the team prepares to begin selling units.

Efforts for the project are being led by Sulo Development, which has been working with architecture firms KPF and ParkFowler Plus on the design. The original plans called for three separate phases, each with its own tower and a portion of an eventual site-wide podium. The project received city approval in early 2025.

The original first phase was to be anchored by a 29-story tower reaching 438 feet and containing 80 condos. This would be followed by a 19-story middle tower with 50 units, and eventually a 39-story tower with 110 units reaching 540 feet in height. However, the project’s Instagram account posted a new rendering this week focusing on just two towers with a slightly altered design.

The project will still commence on the eastern end of the site, though the first phase will now stand around 25 stories tall. Its massing has been slightly simplified, with the crown completely redesigned to feature a corrugated covering. While the lower levels have retained their rounded brick arches, the balconies no longer carry that same detailing. It is unclear whether this revision will impact the unit count.

To the west, a small motor court will remain next to a completely revised second phase. This tower will now become the tallest in the development, rising 33 stories and approximately 500 feet. It will take on a similar massing to the first tower but will be clad in dark gray brick, sharing the podium constructed during the first phase. This tower will likely contain around 100 units.

While not much else is known, the interiors are expected to feature high-end finishes and amenities. The rendering also shows open space to the west of the central tower, which could be reserved for an eventual third phase. It is unclear why these changes were made, but the team is set to begin sales in the coming months and break ground on the first phase shortly thereafter.

Stunning! Finally some semblance of craftsmanship in Fulton Market high-rises.
Looks very nice!
This needs to be built….immediately.
Bait and switch, coming to a neighborhood near you.
Please oh please do not get reduced to metal panels. I had a feeling the original building layout was a tad too ambitious. Phase 1’s crown did seem a little unsure of itself, but I figured that’s just the look that comes with luxury wedding cake penthouse toppers; the real NYC effect. Im not sure if the obtrusive grey mechanical box is a better look, though. Kinda looks like a wart emerging from the beautiful brick. How is Phase 2 balancing it better?
Yep, Looked like we’re getting NYC level architecture of condo tower at first, now back to Chicago cut budget one. 😏
Not a fan of the clunky corrugated rooftop. Not quite great overall, but not too bad for Fulton Market. Always a little deflating when revisions trim and simplify the richness in the original proposal, as it seems the short-term economies materially dilute the long term aesthetic qualities. But it’s still a few steps beyond basic.
The sales center was closed when I passed by there and it was dark but the models inside looked like metal panels and both buildings were the same dark color. They looked like taller versions of their building Embry.
Most likely exorbitant pricing to live on the periphery of W Loop between L stops. I hope for more condo construction but most recent condo projects are sitting on a ton of inventory.
