Neighborhood
740 Fulton on Chicago’s Near West Side is located in a growing community composed of numerous distinct neighborhoods. Fulton Market District - Welcome to a vibrant and bustling neighborhood on the Near West Side of Chicago. Once known for its meat-packing, warehouse, and industrial purposes in the 19th and 20th centuries, it has transformed into a gentrified hub in the 21st century. Today, it's home to corporate headquarters, tech industry, hotels, bars, restaurants, and retail. Start your day at Aba, a Mediterranean restaurant where you're greeted with lush greenery and a mouth-watering breakfast menu. After a hearty meal, head over to Emporium, a bar that houses nostalgic 1980s and ’90s arcade games. Enjoy a game of Pac-Man or pinball while sipping on one of the 25 beers they have on tap. Next, unwind at The Aviary, a west loop bar known for its eccentric cocktails. Their cocktail creations are more of a science experiment that will captivate and delight you. End your day with a dinner at Lyra’s, which brings Greek gastronomical life through the coal and wood-burning grills. The Fulton Market District is not just a place to live, it's a lifestyle. With its commercial real estate, it has attracted both corporate and regional headquarters for many corporations including McDonald's, Google, Kimberly Clark, Dyson, Herman Miller, and Mondelez among others. It's a neighborhood that offers a unique blend of history, innovation, and culture, making it an ideal place for those seeking a dynamic and vibrant urban lifestyle. Fulton River District is known for its industrial past and its current mix of residential and commercial development. The area was once home to a number of factories and warehouses, but over the past few decades, it has undergone significant redevelopment and now features a mix of new residential buildings, trendy restaurants, and artisanal shops. One of the main features of the Fulton River District is its proximity to the Chicago River, which runs through the center of the neighborhood. The riverfront has been transformed into a popular recreation area, with bike paths, playgrounds, and public art installations. The district is also home to the Chicago French Market, a popular indoor food hall featuring local and international vendors. Despite its industrial past, the Fulton River District has a vibrant and diverse community. It is home to a mix of young professionals, families, and artists, and has a lively and energetic atmosphere. The neighborhood is well-connected to the rest of the city, with several major roads and public transportation options running through it. The community is the location of the Union and Northwestern railroad stations, the historic Blommer Chocolate Factory as well as the home of The Boeing Company. West Loop is a growing area attracting a population of urbanites who welcome its many new multi-unit buildings and complexes and its immediacy to downtown. In addition to new construction the neighborhood features a number of rehabbed loft buildings converted into condos and commercial spaces. Amenities in the hood include world-class restaurants, night clubs and an up-and-coming gallery scene. The district is also home to Harpo Studios (Oprah Winfrey Show) and the United Center with its celebrated statue of Michael Jordan and home of the Chicago Bulls and Black Hawks. University Village is an historic neighborhood that has been revitalized by the nearby University of Illinois at Chicago campus. The newly cosmopolitan area was once the site of Chicago’s famous Maxwell Street market with its memorable “we cheat you fair” motto, and the area in which the music known as Chicago Blues first originated.
Greektown offers a diverse ethnic population in an eclectic neighborhood where high-rise office and apartment complexes co-exist with old-world style and traditions. The heart of the community is Halsted Street which is lined with world-famous restaurants and independently owned shops.
Tri-Taylor is a vivacious, growing triangular shaped neighborhood in close proximity to UIC and Chicago’s celebrated Little Italy. To help preserve the area’s flourishing old-world ambience in which restored 19th century rowhouses and two- and three-flat buildings fuse with new single-family homes and townhouses, the Tri-Taylor Historic District has been granted neighborhood landmark status. The Illinois Medical District, home of four world-class hospitals, is part of the Tri-Taylor community. |
