Novak Construction Completes Whole Foods Market in Historic Hyde Park

Chicago — Hyde Park has a new tenant at City Hyde Park, 5118 S. Lake Park Ave., as Whole Foods opened a new 30,000-square-foot store to mark its 26th Chicagoland location on June 22, 2016. Novak Construction led the project.

The new store features a “secret society – intellectual theme” that pays homage to the University of Chicago neighborhood. This is highlighted by a dark blue and brass color scheme, walnut wood throughout, professors’ office doors on restroom stalls, and University symbolism embedded in the décor. The project scope also included installing a sophisticated mechanical system with fluid coolers, VRFs and air handlers.

The underground parking garage and the apartment complex above the store were designed by architect Jeanne Gang.
