Fifield Buys Burnham's 600 W. Jackson

CHICAGO—After several years of developing transformational apartment towers in the West Loop, the company has jumped into the creative office space.

CHICAGO—Fifield Cos. has just purchased 600 W. Jackson Blvd., an eight-story, 106,000 square-foot office building in Chicago’s West Loop and plans to transform the structure into creative office spaces and relocate its own headquarters there from 222 S. Riverside Plaza. The move will put Fifield into the middle of a neighborhood it has done so much to transform in recent years.

“We currently are in a traditional office that has an internal conference room without any windows,” Steven Fifield, chairman and chief executive officer of Fifield Cos., tells GlobeSt.com. Furthermore, employees don’t have the wide variety of spaces increasingly valued by today’s office workers such as “hang-out spaces” where they can meet colleagues on an informal basis. That will change when the company moves in on August 1. “Our office will be a model for the building.”
