CHICAGO – Transwestern Real Estate Services (TRS) announces Heartland Alliance has signed a 20,941-square-foot lease at 55 East Monroe, a 1.3 million-square-foot building in Chicago. Transwestern Executive Managing Director Andrew Davidson and Executive Vice President David Burkards provided tenant advisory services to Heartland Alliance.
Heartland Alliance is a Chicago-based non-profit that seeks to address poverty's root causes through a multi-faceted approach to fighting for human rights and responding to the violence in communities in the local area and nationally. The company will relocate from 208 South LaSalle to 55 East Monroe later this year. Davidson and Burkards leveraged remote-work trends and a tenant-favorable market to help Heartland Alliance downsize and upgrade its space by taking a new spec suite at 55 East Monroe.
“It was important to find a well-capitalized owner and building that would excite their employees,” said Davidson. “This was especially true in light of recent developments at Heartland’s current building, 208 South LaSalle, which has plans to be converted to residential.”
Situated between Chicago’s East and Central Loop submarkets, 55 East Monroe is a Class A, LEED Gold Certified building that offers views of Millennium Park and amenities such as a fitness center, food court, postal station, retail shops, ample on-site parking and direct access to public transportation.
