Property Description
Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc. (“JLL”) has been exclusively retained to present the rare opportunity to acquire the 100% fee simple interest in 555 West Monroe (the “Property”), a 429,316 square foot, 17-story Class-A office building. Situated in the heart of the West Loop in Chicago, 555 West Monroe is in an incredible transit-oriented location, proximate to two of the city’s largest train stations and expressways, resulting in an ideal location for commuters. Designed and constructed in 2002 by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the Property has served as a regional office for the Fortune 100 food and beverage company, PepsiCo.
The Property will be vacant as of January 2021, which provides investors with the opportunity to acquire a blank canvas and implement an immediate and comprehensive renovation at a basis well below replacement cost. Transformational amenity renovations include a fitness center, coffee bar, and an outdoor lounge on the second floor to further position the property as an ideal modern workplace in Chicago. As one of two contiguous blocks of vacancy over 250,000 rentable square feet in the West Loop, 555 West Monroe is a generational opportunity to transform an entire Class-A office asset in one of the most desired submarkets in Chicago.
