The pandemic\u2019s impact on Chicago\u2019s office landscape was significant, resulting in less than 600,000 square feet of new office space delivered in the first half of 2021. Development activity gained steam this year, with office deliveries in the metro during the first six months of 2022 totaling 2 million square feet\u2014a 234.2 percent uptick from the same period last year\u2014accounting for 0.6 percent of the total stock.

Westdale Asset Management<\/strong> broke ground on the property in 2019, completing it in early June. Uber<\/strong> signed a lease to occupy the building\u2019s entire office portion\u2014which would have been its largest hub outside of its San Francisco headquarters\u2014but expansion plans fell apart due to pandemic-induced woes.<\/p>\n
