Construction has topped out at 12 stories for a mixed-use development known as 1045 on Fulton Market in West Loop’s Fulton Market District. The 147-foot-tall building has been spearheaded by Fulton Street Companies and Intercontinental Real Estate, and will offer a mix of ground-level retail and office space across its 150,000 square feet.

As noted in a listing by the brokerage firm Madison Rose, office floor plates will range between 10,000 and 14,000 square feet. Tenants will also have access to an amenity floor with a terrace and lounge space overlooking the ever densifying Fulton Market corridor. Other offerings include bike storage, touch-less technologies, MERV-15 air filtration, and first-floor nanawalls for seamless indoor/outdoor transitions during summer months. Parking will yield 35 spaces situated in a below-grade garage.

The boutique tower has been envisioned by Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture (HPA), who had also designed Fulton Street Companies’ adjacent 1100 W Fulton Market. The massing will be defined by the ninth-floor terraced setback that also marks the transition of the facade. The bottom eight floors will incorporate a brick exterior with warehouse-inspired windows and metal accents, while the remaining four floors are clad in a transparent window-wall system with metal mullions. Latest renderings from Madison Rose show additional exterior details such a stylized “1045” sign near the roof, as well as green awnings at the first floor.

New renderings also depict an elegant interior with wooden flooring, ample natural light, and multi-floor openings. The amenity deck, meanwhile, will be lined with multiple trellises, various lounge spaces, and a biophilic design with a collection of different foliage. These features and furnishings are reflected in Madison Rose’s description of the building, which describes 1045 on Fulton to “be fashioned with one thing in mind: the comfort of its tenants.”

Since YIMBY’s last update earlier this month, four new floors have been added to bring the structure to its full height. This current milestone is a testament to the breakneck pace of the project, which only received full construction permits this past March. Power Construction is serving as general contractor for the reportedly $34 million venture, with a full opening date expected for the fourth quarter of this year.
