1200 West Fulton | Building Up Chicago

Tag Archives: 1200 West Fulton

1200 West Fulton is a two-tower, 1,079-unit residential development proposal approved by the Chicago Plan Commission in October 2024. A joint effort between JDL Development and Fulton Street Companies, 1200 West Fulton is likely to be built in two phases, although the developers’ goal is to build the entire project at once. If phased, Phase One would see the shorter of the two towers built. The 37-story, 465-foot-tall North Tower will stand at the northeast corner of the site and contain 521 units, at the intersection of Racine and Carroll Avenues. The West Tower, Phase Two, will rise mid-block on Fulton. It is to be 43 stories and 545 feet tall, with 558 units.

Thursday, the Chicago Plan Commission gave their approval for the two-tower development 1200 West Fulton in the West Loop’s Fulton Market District.

A joint effort between JDL Development and Fulton Street Companies, 1200 West Fulton is likely to be built in two phases, although the developers’ goal is to build the entire project at once. If phased, Phase One would see the shorter of the two towers built. The 37-story, 465-foot-tall North Tower will stand at the northeast corner of the site and contain 521 units, at the intersection of Racine and Carroll Avenues. The West Tower, Phase Two, will rise mid-block on Fulton. It is to be 43 stories and 545 feet tall, with 558 units.

A total of 1,079 residential units are included in the two towers, with 20% of those (216 units) set aside as affordable. The shared podium will include 440 parking spaces, nearly 125,000 square feet of commercial space, and one bicycle storage space per residence. Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture is the design architect, as they are for another recent JDL development, One Chicago.
