BMO Harris Bank in Talks for 500K SF to Anchor Chicago’s Union Station
BMO Harris Bank is reportedly taking 500,000 square feet of office space to anchor Chicago’s Union Station, a more than $1-billion, multi-phased redevelopment proposed by Chicago developers Riverside Investment & Development and Convexity Properties. A 715-foot-tall office tower encompassing 1.5 million square feet of space would sit atop 400 below-ground parking spaces on Canal Street.
If the pre-lease goes through for the bank’s new U.S. HQ, it would likely allow construction to commence on the downtown site south of the railway station where a parking garage now stands. Chicago-based Goettsch Partners’ architectural plan includes a large public plaza underneath a cantilevered portion of the tower.
The bank occupies more than 800,000 square feet across three downtown buildings, including 115 S. LaSalle St., 111 W. Monroe St. and 200 W. Adams St.
JLL’s Jeff Liljeberg and Steve Stratton are representing the tenant.
