Skender Launches Interior Construction of C.H. Robinson’s New Office

Skender, serving as general contractor, has begun interior construction of a new, 207,000-square-foot office for C.H. Robinson within the first Sterling Bay riverfront property in its Lincoln Yards development in Lincoln Park. The Fortune 500 third-party logistics and supply chain management provider is relocating from its current offices at 1840 N. Marcey St.

The technology-rich office space will offer a wide range of amenities in support of a highly collaborative and productive workplace, according to Skender. These include open office workstation areas, private offices, conference rooms of varying size, two reception areas, a warming pantry and large café, a 5,000-square-foot roof terrace and an open atrium that cuts through all four floors of the firm’s space.

Frequent collaborators throughout the Chicago area, Skender and Sterling Bay are working with designers Vocon and SOM on the C.H. Robinson headquarters, scheduled for completion in July 2018.
