Neighborhood Group Voices Concerns About Fulton Market Development's Height
Developers have pitched a 51-story residential high-rise for 900 W. Randolph St., but they have run into a snag with the Neighbors of the West Loop Development Committee, according to Curbed Chicago. The community group has stated that the building is too tall.
Related Midwest and Tucker Development are the developers behind the Fulton Market project. The community group pointed out that the building would be the West Loop’s tallest west of Halsted Street, according to the report.
The development may have to lose some height in order to win approval. If the project moves forward, the residential high-rise will be built on the site of a parking lot and commercial building, according to the report.
The high-rise’s current plans feature 300 residential units, 220 parking spots, and commercial space, according to another Curbed Chicago report.
The Neighbors of the West Loop Development Committee appear to have less of an issue of height when it comes to buildings on the east side of Halsted Street, according to the report. The committee approved another development from Related Midwest. This project, located at 725 W. Randolph St., includes 58 stories, according to the report.
