Facade progress is rapidly taking shape for 932 W Randolph Street, a redevelopment of a former three-story bank in West Loop‘s Fulton Market. The development involves the re-skin of the existing structure, and a new three-level connected addition that will take on the same design.

L3 Capital is the developer behind the 35,000-square-foot project, whose programming will be entirely commercial. Recent reports have confirmed that a new showroom for the electric carmaker Rivian will occupy the building. Last year, L3 Capital received approval to convert the existing zoning designation of the property from C1-2 neighborhood commercial district to DX-5 mixed-use district.

OKW Architects is serving as the design architect for the revamped and expanded edifice. The new design takes on a industrial-themed aesthetic, with a modern palette of brick, metal paneling, and floor-to-ceiling windows. While the first two floors will be primarily clad in brick, the remaining third floor will be wrapped in metal paneling, creating a compelling street presence. Other features include an elevator and stairwell tower at the northeast corner, bringing the maximum height to 55 feet.
