360 N Green Street Secures Sixth Place in Construction Countdown

Chicago’s sixth tallest tower under construction is 360 N Green Street, a 24-story primarily office tower in Fulton Market. Planned by Sterling Bay and poised to stand 399 feet, the building will be one of the tallest to the west of the Kennedy Expressway. The base portion has seen significant progress in the last few months, with both the core and structural pieces already filling out much of the base section.

The tower will have 5,400 square feet of retail space and just under 500,000 square feet of Class A office space. The offices will offer high ceilings and large, flexible floor layouts. Tenants will have access to a fourth fitness center, an indoor/outdoor lounge area, and a new urban park with seating, open grass space, and an assortment of plants and trees.

Up next in the countdown comparison with New York is Brooklyn Tower, a 93-story supertall skyscraper in Downtown Brooklyn. Planned by JDS Development, the mixed-use structure is now the tallest building in the city outside of Manhattan. Having been built atop the historic Dime Savings Bank of Brooklyn, the project is set to contain 100,000 square feet of retail in its podium and 550 units in the tower section.
