Amata Opens New Shared Office Center at 150 South Wacker Drive

By Gabriel Circiog, Associate Editor

Amata Office Centers has recently announced it is opening its sixth shared office center in Chicago featuring 16,950 square feet of space. Occupying the entire 24th floor of the building located at 150 South Wacker Drive in the West Loop neighborhood, the shared office center is scheduled to open May 1.

Amata’s 150 South Wacker Drive shared office center will feature over 50 private office suites, seven open workstations, six large team rooms, three state-of-the-art conference rooms, a café and lounge and Amata’s signature Cognac room.

“It seemed natural that our next location would be in the West Loop as it has quickly become one of the hottest areas for startups, especially those launching tech firms,” says Ron Bockstahler, Amata’s CEO and co-founder. ”We even took that into account in designing the shared office space at 150 South Wacker, as it will include an open loft concept, gigabit Ethernet connection and video games in the lounge. The building is also easily accessible from I-90 and I-94 as well as close to the Union and Ogilvy Metra Stations, making it a convenient location for commuters.”

Amata has been involved in the shared office movement for over ten years, connecting small, entrepreneurial businesses, as well as national and international companies that have been searching to set up offices in Chicago.

“Because of the increase in firms flocking to Chicago, we’ve seen an increasing demand for our cost-effective and flexible office solutions, so we’re excited to offer a new Amata location to companies,” Bockstahler says.

Certain Amata locations also provide special services that cater to specific industries. For example Amata’s “aLawCenter” locations at 161 North Clark Street and 180 North LaSalle Street cater to the company’s legal clients and offers private deposition rooms, paralegal support and docket services.
