Entrance along Ogden Avenue
Originally up-zoned to a Life Science building, Weldon successfully rezoned the property for 2 residential towers in just under 6 months.
After acquiring the land in January 2024, Weldon created a new scheme with an extremely efficient floor plan, utilizing a unit mix that includes a majority of 2-bedroom units that will be marketed at an affordable price. The unit designs also focus on the flexibility of space and workspace ingrained in the unit. The tower’ parking structures, housed on floors two through six, are appropriately screened with decorative metal mesh panels on Racine Ave. and naturally ventilated.
Park
The design of two independent towers, evoking fraternal twins, situated on a landscaped plaza will activate the Western border of the Fulton Market district. The towers will have unique facades informed by respective orientation so that the envelope can be maximized for energy efficiency. The design of the 410 at the ground-floor lobby responds to its position along N. Elizabeth Street, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the street. To enhance the pedestrian experience, the building has a cantilevered canopy above the lobby entry, creating an inviting front door.
Careful consideration dictated the placement of the tower’s roof top level amenity suites, which extends out of the southern facade and has breathtaking views of the Loop skyline and the western sunsets. Housing potential shared amenities such as, a fireplace lounge, show kitchen, flexible workspaces, an indoor pool connecting to an outdoor terrace on the building’s south.
Outdoor plaza with café
The new tower is designed for LEED Gold and Fitwel certification, which will be achieved, in part, through the use of eco-friendly materials and integration of additional elements such as a green rooftop growing vegetables, fruits or flowers.
The Weldon Group’s commitment to sustainability and responsible design is integral in the development of 410 N Elizabeth. The development is pursuing a geothermal energy system that will provide 80% of the buildings’ heating and cooling needs. The system will have approximately 120 closed loop geothermal bores that will connect to buildings heating and cooling system heat pumps. The heat pumps will use the geothermal heat exchanger to move heat to and from the building throughout the year to the earth below.
