Pilsen to Get Pioneering Office Development

Mural Park will include a community plaza that will be part of the city’s new Paseo Trail.

CHICAGO—There is a lot of demand powering the CBD’s robust office market, and recently that has pushed developers to look beyond the Loop to new potential submarkets like Goose Island. And now Condor Partners has decided to establish itself in Pilsen, a vibrant community on the Near South Side. The Chicago-based firm plans to redevelop two 100,000-square-foot loft buildings at 1901 and 1911 S. Sangamon St. into a mixed-use property that will include office, light manufacturing and retail space.

Condor has also brought on Transwestern senior vice presidents Jeff Dowdell and Katie Steele and associate William Briggs to lease the project, called Mural Park, which it will have ready for occupancy in first quarter 2018.
