Fulton Market
Fulton Market Living
Commemorating American inventor Robert Fulton (the inventor of the steamboat), Fulton Market is located just across the expressway from the Fulton River District. Formerly a meat-packing, warehouse and industrial district, Fulton Market has grown to be one of Chicago’s trendiest neighborhoods, and is home to KM Headquarters!
With its close proximity to the Loop & expressway, Fulton Market is home to corporate giants like Google & McDonalds, establishing itself as an upscale neighborhood that continues to grow within the Near West Side.
Boasting some of the hottest bars & restaurants, you can also find some favorite local pubs in the mix (Hello, Aberdeen Tap). We love grabbing a bite to eat at one of the many outdoor patios & enjoying a summer evening in the city.
The neighborhood is served by the CTA Green & Pink line trains as well as several bus routes. It also offers convenient access to the Kennedy Expressway.
As a Fulton Market Resident
“I love being moments away from the heart of the West Loop while still being tucked away from all the action.”
Fulton Market Style
Originally dominated by industrial mid-rise architecture, Fulton Market has emerged as one of the city’s most popular sites for new construction. New residential development has brought new construction luxury apartments & condos to complement the neighborhood’s many converted warehouses & lofts.
The Area
Public Transportation: The city’s newest ‘L’ line, the Pink Line runs from Cicero to Chicago’s downtown. The Green Line is great for getting from Oak Park to the West Side, into the Loop, and then to the South Side, West Englewood and Woodlawn. Chicago’s longest ‘L’ line & second busiest route, the Blue Line is great for getting anywhere from the Loop to O’hare, Forest Park, UIC & even Jefferson Park.
Highway Access: Hop right onto I-90 or I-290.
