There’s a new reason to head to Chicago’s West Loop, and it isn’t just the food. The Yard Signature: Fulton Market has officially opened its doors at 1101 West Lake Street, transforming more than 30,000 square feet into a polished, design-rich coworking destination for entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals seeking more than just a desk.
This debut location introduces The Yard’s new Signature collection, a refined evolution of the brand’s well-known coworking spaces in New York, Washington D.C., and Philadelphia. Chicago was chosen with intention, thanks to its creative momentum, vibrant startup ecosystem, and strong sense of community.
Inside, the space tells an architectural story.
Exposed brick, rich wood beams, and high ceilings preserve the building’s industrial roots, while curated details bring modern warmth and personality. Velvet chairs, mid-century accents, and gallery wall groupings create cozy, artful corners throughout the space. The deep blue tile in the kitchen area adds a sophisticated contrast to the natural wood finishes and marble countertop, while globe pendant lighting offers a soft, elegant glow.
Private offices and glass-walled meeting rooms are bathed in natural light, many with views of the surrounding neighborhood. Thoughtfully arranged communal spaces encourage conversation, collaboration, and creativity. Every element feels considered.
Then there’s the rooftop. With unobstructed views across Fulton Market and beyond, the rooftop deck invites workdays to breathe. Whether you’re meeting a client, hosting an event, or simply looking to reset between calls, the rooftop is as functional as it is scenic.

With flexible options for day use, team meetings, and event hosting, it’s as well-suited for out-of-towners as it is for local creatives and business owners. Located within walking distance of top restaurants and transit, it puts members at the heart of one of Chicago’s most energetic neighborhoods.
The Yard Signature: Fulton Market is more than a place to work. It’s a place to connect, gather, and experience the day in a new way.
