Skender, in collaboration with developer Fulton Street Companies and community leaders, has broken ground on a new mixed-use office development in Fulton Market, Chicago, US.

Located at 919 W Fulton Street, this new 11-storey, 409,000ft² project is said to be the first significant new office complex in Chicago to enter the construction stage in more than a year.

Chicago-based real estate investor Harrison Street Real Estate Capital and Gibsons Restaurant Group are the building’s major tenants.

Fulton Street Companies founder and CEO Alex Najem said: “We have assembled the very best organisations and companies, led by exceptional people, to remind the world that we can – and will – continue to build in downtown Chicago.”

The 919 W Fulton Street site will feature large floor-to-ceiling windows, outdoor terraces on all sides, a rooftop featuring a lounge and bar, multiple co-working and conference areas, a fitness centre with full locker rooms, a ComEd vault, and mechanicals.
