Explore the loop

Welcome to the hottest neighborhood in the country. Fulton Market, Chicago’s iconic meatpacking district, sits at the heart of the West Loop.

Famous for its award-winning restaurants, industrial history, and forward-thinking people, the West Loop has quickly become Chicago’s cultural and technological powerhouse.

Impact
on the Community

Since 1991, we’ve been a vital part of the West Loop. We’ve hosted the Taste of Randolph Street for 26 years, which brings about 100,000 people to the neighborhood every Father’s Day Weekend. Our membership association has supported thousands of local businesses, non-profits, and residential organizations.

We also clean and green the landscaping of Fulton Market from Halsted to Ogden and back again during the season. WLCO is responsible for the lighting of the Fulton Market sign and it’s maintenance.
