Updated plans have been revealed for the mixed-use development at 210–220 North Morgan Street in Fulton Market. Located mid-block between Lake Street and Fulton Street, the site appears to have changed hands from its previous developer, who received approval for their plans over three years ago.

The previous plans were led by NewCastle Investors, with local architecture firm HPA responsible for the design. They proposed a glassy, three-tiered tower that would rise 33 stories and reach 380 feet in height. The building was to include 204 residential units, ground-floor retail space, and a 50-vehicle parking garage. However, the project has remained dormant since its approval.

Now, a new zoning application has been submitted by an LLC led by Luxury Apartments Chicago and Parq Development. They have enlisted ParkFowler Plus to design a new, shorter tower. Unfortunately, this iteration abandons much of the previous design in favor of a two-staggered-boxes approach commonly seen throughout the neighborhood.

The revised plans call for an 18-story tower rising approximately 260 feet. It will feature roughly 3,800 square feet of ground-floor retail space, a small lobby, and a second-floor parking garage with 30 spaces. The upper floors will house 268 residential units, likely consisting of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts.

The final number of affordable units has not been confirmed. However, all residents will have access to various rooftop decks and terraces. The lower levels of the building will be clad in brick, while the tower itself will feature two tones of metal paneling. The development team is currently seeking an amendment to the originally approved zoning. If all goes according to plan, we can expect a late 2027 completion date.
