ASKFJDHKS, 600 FOOTER PROPOSED FOR FULTON MARKET!

This would be Fulton Market's biggest project yet

Fulton Street Cos. wants to build office and lab space, apartments, a hotel and a big fitness center on a site at 1200 W. Fulton St., said Alex Najem, the firm’s founder and CEO.

The development will include 500 apartments and 200 hotel rooms in a roughly 50-story tower; a 25-story, 500,000-square-foot office building; and a 10-story, 200,000-square-foot building catering to life sciences companies, Najem said. The fitness center would encompass 200,000 square feet. Najem declined to disclose the tenant’s name, saying only that “it’s a national group that’s expanding.”

It’s unclear whether Fulton Market residents or city officials will go for a 50-story tower, which would be taller than any building completed or under construction in the neighborhood. At about 600 feet, it would be more than 100 feet higher than an apartment high-rise that Related Midwest is constructing at 900 W. Randolph St. Related Midwest had originally planned a 51-story, 570-foot tower on the site, but shrunk it to 43 stories after neighborhood groups criticized it as too tall.

Najem thinks neighbors will support Fulton Street’s plan because the project will include a lot of green space open to the public.
