Vornado Showcases The MART’s Upgrades at NeoCon 2023

Vornado Realty Trust unveiled The MART’s transformation of the building’s redeveloped spaces, including a new suite of world-class tenant amenities and revitalizations to the South Lobby and River Park— during this year’s NeoCon event, the world’s leading platform for commercial interior design and one of The MART’s marquee design trade shows.

Owned and operated by Vornado Realty Trust, The MART is an architectural icon in Chicago and the largest privately held commercial building in the country. The latest developments, designed by Vornado in collaboration with Gensler, deliver a highly visible transformation to the building’s plaza, including a revitalized South Lobby, an extensive 23,000-square-foot health club, a 21,000-square-foot tenant-exclusive conference center, and an update of The MART’s River Park outdoor public space.

The MART encompasses 4.2 million gross square feet, spans two city blocks, rises 25 stories, and is visited by an average of 30,000 people each business day (or nearly 10 million people annually).
