Loop Retail Historic District
Loop Retail Historic District, Historic shopping district in Chicago, United States.
The Loop Retail Historic District extends from Lake Street to Ida B. Wells Drive between State Street and Wabash Avenue in downtown Chicago.
When Potter Palmer improved State Street in 1870 and convinced Marshall Field to relocate there in 1868, the area started its transformation into Chicago's retail center.
The district contains multiple landmarks, including the Marshall Field and Company Building, Chicago Theatre, Palmer House, and Sullivan Center, representing different architectural periods.
Multiple public transit options serve the district, with the Chicago Transit Authority Red Line on State Street and elevated trains on Wabash and Lake streets.
The district maintains 74 contributing structures and 13 separately listed Historic Places, displaying the highest concentration of landmark buildings in Chicago.
