CH Robinson, one of the world’s largest logistics providers, has announced plans for a 207,000ft2 build-to-suit office building in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighbourhood.
Sterling Bay, which acquired the 4.18 acre site earlier this year, will serve as the developer and manage the property.
The construction of the three-story building will transform the former tannery site into the Chicago office headquarters for CH Robinson, with the group signing a 15-year lease for the entire property – a significant expansion from its current 160,000ft2 property. Occupancy is expected in late 2018.
“Over the past decade, Chicago has emerged as our largest center of employment, and one of our most important global markets,” said Pat Nolan, vice-president at CH Robinson. “Chicago’s longstanding history as a multimodal transportation hub, its thriving tech industry, and its rich talent pool make it an ideal place for us to do business. We look forward to continued growth in Chicago in the years to come.”
