State Street Special Service Area #1

Chicago Loop Alliance is contracted by the City of Chicago as the sole service provider for State Street Special Service Area (SSA) #1.

Commonly known in other cities as a Business Improvement District (BID), the SSA is a local assessment district that funds enhanced city services and programs—from landscaping and maintenance to hospitality services—within a targeted area. For SSA #1, that includes all property on both sides of State Street between Wacker Drive to the north and Congress Parkway to the south.

Each year, the State Street Commission approves a budget for SSA #1 which is determined by the levy the city collects.
