Leasing

The wrestling entertainment giant has signed a 415,000-square-foot lease with New York City-based George Comfort & Sons, Inc. at 677 Washington Blvd., the former North American headquarters of UBS, for its global headquarters.

The 94,500 square foot property is situated at the foot of Willow Grove Mall, a three-story, 1.2 million square foot enclosed mall.

While the market saw strong leasing activity, secondary markets in the Western US are outpacing Southern California.

“Kristen elevates every project she undertakes, whether it's leading operations at 1130 S. Michigan, creating company-wide employee recognition programs, supporting the industry with her involvement in professional organizations, or giving back to the community through charitable initiatives,” says Julie Stevlingson of Draper and Kramer.

"We saw this as a great opportunity to provide a structured investment in a development project that is extremely promising, given the ongoing local demand for high-quality residential and retail product," says Matt Drummond, Square Mile Capital.

A long-term lease of 629 square feet has been inked with Flip 'n Patties at Understory, the 35,000-square-foot community hub and culinary market at Capitol Tower.

The deal with the social media web and mobile application company brings pre-leasing at the mixed-use campus to nearly 60%.

“203 N. LaSalle St. is in position to capture the interest of growing tenants, like InnerWorkings, seeking large floorplates, new amenities, and access to the city's workforce,” says Transwestern's Jeff Dowdell.
