The United Center, built from 1992 to 1994, is set to undergo a transformation through the 1901 Project, aimed at creating a vibrant mixed-use neighborhood over 55 acres surrounding the arena. Led by RIOS and supported by Field Operations, this $7 billion initiative seeks to enhance connectivity and pedestrian activity, moving away from its current function primarily as a parking zone. With a focus on walkability and public open spaces, the project embraces Chicago’s motto, 'City in a Garden,' and aims to activate the district year-round as a destination for living, working, and playing.
