IMC Upsizes Willis Tower Footprint by 50K SF
In a transaction that bucks recent leasing trends, trading firm IMC is extending its lease at EQ Office’s Willis Tower by 10 years while adding a third floor. The technology-driven market maker will now occupy 160,000 square feet at the iconic downtown Chicago office tower, an increase of 50,000 square feet.
EQ Office and the Telos Group leasing team at the 110-story tower cited IMC’s long-term commitment as an illustration of the success Willis Tower is seeing following a $500-million repositioning. “Not only is Willis Tower an icon, but it is also a highly-desirable office building in a premier location,” said Nikki Kern, Telos Group EVP. “The recent repositioning has set the tower apart in the market by creating a workplace with incredible amenities and quality office spaces.”
JLL’s Matt Carolan and Phil Geiger represented IMC, while Kern and Telos Group’s Jamey Dix and Caroline Colnon represented EQ Office.
