Chicago-based Habitat, a leading U.S. multifamily developer and property manager, has started pre-leasing for Cassidy on Canal, a new 33-story, 343-unit Class A rental tower at 350 N. Canal St. in Chicago’s Fulton River District.
Cassidy on Canal features multiple apartment layouts across a mix of studio, one-, two-bedroom, and penthouse units, plus 1,313 sf of ground-floor retail, parking for 123 vehicles, and an outdoor dog run just northwest of the building.

The amenity package is highlighted by a 10,000-sf outdoor deck off the building’s fifth floor, with landscaped grounds, a pool, lounge seating, fire pits, grilling areas, cool weather heaters, and dining areas. The fitness center will offer residents practice studios, a game room, various club rooms, a coworking center, and a spa with sauna, steam, and whirlpool rooms.
PROXIMITY TO CHICAGO'S RIVERWALK
“Cassidy on Canal brings the best Chicago has to offer right to its doorstep with its proximity to the riverwalk and the numerous businesses, restaurants and entertainment options of the Loop, Fulton Market and River North areas,” said Habitat President Matt Fiascone. “Compared to the higher density of Fulton Market to the west, Cassidy is nestled in this protected sweet spot with the river to one side and train lines to the other, filling a void in the immediate neighborhood for a modern, highly amenitized rental option.”
FORMER HOME OF CASSIDY TIRE COMPANY
Rents will range from $2,550 to $5,660 for studios anbd one- and two-bedrooms. Penthouse units are expected togo for up to $10,810 per month.
Located on the west side of Canal Street between Kinzie and Fulton streets, the 350 N. Canal site was formerly home to the Cassidy Tire building. Designed by nationally recognized architecture firm Solomon Cordwell Buenz, the new 375-foot glass tower marks the latest luxury residential project for Habitat in the neighborhood.

Habitat delivered nearby developments like Kinzie Park with condominiums and townhomes in 2001, followed by the 43-story Kingsbury Plaza apartment tower in 2007 and the 43-story Class A rental Hubbard Place in 2013.
In 1980, Habitat completed East Bank Club, the city’s premier health club, which occupies more than two full city blocks at 500 N. Kingsbury St.
JOINT VENTURE WITH DIVERSIFIED REAL ESTATE CAPITAL

Cassidy on Canal is one of several major multifamily developments Habitat is currently leading across Chicago, including the equitable transit-oriented development 43 Green in Bronzeville; Ogden Commons in North Lawndale where Sinai Chicago has opened a One Lawndale Community Care & Surgery Center; and LeClaire Courts on the city’s South Side near Midway International Airport.
