Sterling Bay announced the start of pre-leasing for The Dylan, a brand-new luxury apartment tower located at 160 N Morgan in Fulton Market. The Dylan is Sterling Bay’s first Fulton Market residential property, offering 282 rental units that set a new standard for urban living in the heart of Chicago’s hottest neighborhood.

Developed in partnership with Ascentris and designed by locally owned, globally recognized architecture firm bKL, The Dylan features studio, convertible, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom floor plans ranging from 526 to 1,669 square feet. The exterior design features mixed masonry and metal, complementing Fulton Market’s industrial character, while colorful murals by local artists Kate Lewis and Emmy Star Brown enhance the building’s façade and pedestrian experience.

Sterling Bay Design Studio and Chicago-based design firm Harken Interiors curated in-unit finishes with the goal of reflecting Fulton Market’s modern-meets-industrial aesthetic. Kitchens feature designer linear LED fixtures and quartz waterfall edge countertops, while bathrooms include terrazzo shower bases and high-end fixtures throughout. Penthouse units located on the 28th-floor feature chef’s kitchens with SubZero refrigerators, Wolf gas ranges, Cove dishwashers, under-counter beverage refrigerators, upgraded bathroom fixtures, and wide-plank hardwood and heated tile floors.

Floor-to-ceiling windows provide ample natural light and sweeping, unobstructed views of the city’s skyline. Residents will enjoy over 15,000 square feet of outdoor amenity space, including a rooftop pool and a fifth-floor deck featuring fire pits, grill stations, outdoor fitness options, and a dog play area. Rental rates are available at thedylanchicago.com and move-ins are expected in October.

Residents of The Dylan will also enjoy access to SBX, Sterling Bay’s proprietary tenant experience portal offering community-inspired on-site programming. The Dylan will host private events such as local boutique pop-ups, exclusive chef tastings, and unique arts and culture classes and provide insider access to top restaurants, wellness clubs, exhibits, performances, sporting events, and retail discounts.

Managed by Sterling Bay Property Management in partnership with JLL, The Dylan will offer 24-hour front desk services, as well as a first-floor mailroom with separate package delivery spaces and bicycle parking. Garage parking includes 89 spaces available for lease with select units upon request. The building will achieve an environmental certification of Two Green Globes and will follow the RESET Air Standard, providing tenants with improved indoor air quality and reduced exposure to pollutants in an energy-efficient, sustainably designed environment.

Pre-leasing for The Dylan, led by Chicago-based Luxury Living—a rental-focused real estate brokerage—is underway at a curated leasing center 370 N Carpenter, where future tenants can experience a fully built-out model kitchen and bathroom and view floor plans and finish samples.
