Chicago-based Echo Global Logistics, Inc. signed a 224,678-square-foot lease at 600 West Chicago Avenue in Chicago–a 132,000-square-foot expansion for Echo at the location.
Echo is provider of technology-enabled transportation and supply chain management services, in a 224,678-square-foot lease at 600 West Chicago Avenue in Chicago.
A bulk of the expansion will accommodate approximately 500 workers that Echo will move from nearby Skokie, Ill. Last year, the firm acquired Skokie-based Command Transportation.
With this transaction, 600 West is now 100 percent leased. The building is located in Chicago’s desirable River North neighborhood that boasts a strong labor force, trendy culinary scene and growing rental market.
CBRE‘s Todd Lippman, vice chairman; Brad Serot, executive vice president; and Paul Reaumond, senior vice president with CBRE, represented Echo in the transaction. Jack O’Brien, executive vice president, and Matt Pistorio, senior vice president, with Telos Group represented the landlord.
