Parkside Realty Implements ‘Health-Focused Operating Solutions’ at Office Building in Chicago’s Fulton Market

CHICAGO — Parkside Realty is addressing employee health, safety and wellness at Fulton East, a new 12-story, 90,000-square-foot office building nearing completion in Chicago’s Fulton Market. Slated to open this summer, the building features wellness technology such as a hands-free elevator system that utilizes foot-activated buttons to help reduce the spread of germs. In addition, Fulton East will utilize airPHX, which is currently used in hospitals and college athletic facilities and helps reduce bacteria and mold both on surfaces and in the air. Fulton East will have touch-free key fob access and touch-free sinks in bathrooms. Floor plates are designed for single-tenant use and each floor has its own private balcony. An 8,000-square-foot rooftop garden park will be available for exclusive use of building occupants. Clayco is the design-builder and Lamar Johnson Collaborative is the architect. Interior designer Holly Hunt designed the lobby.
