Hope this gets built, but that design looks primed to fall victim to the same design tweaks as 855 W Madison...

Block Club has some better images of 1200 W Carroll.

looks like they're showing a sneak peak at their plans to redevelop AMD milling.

1200 W Carroll is about 300 ft, so the AMD redevelopment must be close to 450 ft

This is fucking awesome.

Looks like developers are going with this cubed modular geometry too.

1200 Carroll will be about 227'.

God damn the Fulton Market boom is simply shocking at this point. I wonder how this neighborhood will feel when most of these projects are finishing up. its going to be way more dense, way more active, and house a lot of transplants, I assume. I predict Fulton Market will feel pretty placeless considering neighborhoods like these are popping up or continuing to grow in most American cities. Personally I feel this is why its important to keep as much of the historic building stock as possible, so its good to see SB planning on keeping the mill towers and building intact.

Yeah but the historic building stock is "placeless" too. Warehouses in Chicago are pretty similar to warehouses in Denver, Minneapolis, or Buffalo. Even 100 years ago there weren't that many regional differences, except in the vernacular architecture built by the poors. People on the lower rungs of society have always had to adapt their homes and businesses to regional conditions, while the wealthier classes can afford to pursue the latest national fashions.

American cities have always moved in lock-step architecturally, more or less. The lofts of 1910 are the gleaming tech midrises of SoMa, Kendall Square, and Fulton Market in the 2010s.

I have to disagree with you there. The old historic building stock is a disappearing thing, and it is in a limited number of cities, meanwhile modern popups like these are everywhere and growing. If this were 1920 you'd have more of an argument for brick warehouses everywhere, but that time has long gone and many buildings have fallen to the wrecking crews since then.

I live around the corner from AMD. Can't wait to see this formally presented. They teased a new metra station a while back at that site. Would love to see it happen. My neighbors will try to NIMBY the hell out of both the height and the train station, but fingers crossed Burnett does what he does and approves it.
