January 07, 2021
CHICAGO – Transwestern Real Estate Services (TRS) announces that it has been selected by Commerz Real, asset manager of German Commerzbank, to provide exclusive leasing services for The National – 125 S. Clark, a 20-story, 582,400-square-foot office building in Chicago’s Central Loop submarket. Executive Vice President Eric Myers and Senior Vice Presidents Jeff Dowdell and Kathleen Bertrand will provide leasing services on behalf of the owner.
“We are thrilled to partner with Commerz Real as The National welcomes current and new tenants back to the office in 2021,” said Myers. “This historical landmark offers tenants a complete amenity package as well as two new, furnished suites that are immediately available.”
Built in 1907, The National is a designated Chicago Landmark designed by Daniel Burnham. The building was renovated in 2015 to include a new fitness center; a tenant lounge with a bar, pool table and collaborative seating; and an outdoor terrace with shuffleboard. This renovation also included the addition of Revival Food Hall, a 24,000-square-foot dining marketplace that features 15 local restaurants in a grab-and-go setting.
The National is 92% leased with brand new spec suites available on the second and 10th floors. It is located within walking distance to a variety of dining, shopping and entertainment options, as well as both the Monroe and Jackson “L” stations.
