CHICAGO—The 1.49 million square foot building at 600 W. Chicago Ave. is now fully leased, another sign of the downtown office market’s remarkable vitality, especially the submarket of River North, which continues to attract more than its share of creative office users. The Telos Group LLC, which handles leasing for owner Equity Commonwealth, reached the milestone after VSA Partners renewed their commitment to 600 W. Chicago with a new lease for 51,422 square feet.

“It’s been a perfect match between an interesting property and an owner that gets it; one committed to keeping the property modern and current,” Jack O’Brien, executive vice president of Telos, tells GlobeSt.com. Furthermore, all of the companies in the 600 building, such as Groupon, seem to attract a young workforce that gives the building an energy and vibe that makes it even more appealing to tenants. “It’s almost like a college campus; you really feel the energy.”
