JLL Takes Anchor Space at Ryan’s Oakmont Point Development in Westmont, IL

JLL signed a long-term, 67,000-square-foot lease to anchor Ryan Companies’ newest redevelopment project at Oakmont Point in Westmont, IL. The brokerage firm will consolidate its existing operations in Westmont and Lombard into the new office at the $50-million, 18-acre office complex acquired by Ryan Companies in 2017 and currently under redevelopment.

Ryan Companies’ Curt Pascoe says, “Redeveloping the existing structures has allowed us to envision our amenities as the focal point of the buildings, creating engaging and active space for today’s employees to thrive.”

The 275,000-square-foot, urban-style office complex at the eastern end of I-88 will be a highly attractive destination for office users in the western suburbs. The property at 700 Oakmont Ln. also includes all-new efficient mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, plus open floor plans supporting modern Class A tenants.

JLL is expected to move its existing teams, encompassing 350 employees, to Oakmont Point this fall.
