M & J Wilkow, Ltd. announced today that the real estate firm has completed a $15 million renovation of 203 North LaSalle Street, a Class A office building located one block from River North.
The LEED® Platinum building has been enhanced to create a new experience for its visitors and tenants. The lobby has been renovated to reflect a modern aesthetic, increasing natural light and relocating the reception desk in order to open the space. This modernization is carried throughout the first floor concourse level, where escalators have been removed in order to create an open walkway and increase visibility for the retail tenants that inhabit the concourse.
“The full renovation of this large floor plate building is exactly what the market has been demanding – it’s bright, modern and rich with amenities. This renovation partnered with the full service ‘L’ stop make 203 an exciting option for companies that desire the River North experience in the loop” said Jack O’Brien, EVP with the Telos Group, the building’s leasing agent.
In an effort to provide top amenities for the building’s tenants, a technology lounge and conference center has been added to the second floor. The technology lounge is wi-fi enabled, and complete with large screen televisions and audio visual equipment to facilitate conferencing. In contrast, those looking to take a break from work can visit the new second floor tenant lounge. Elegant soft seating and a fireplace fill this unique space, which overlooks the concourse.
Teaming up with LifeStart Wellness Network, leaders in corporate fitness, 203 North LaSalle now includes a state-of-the-art fitness center on the second floor that features a cardio and weights studio, as well as a group exercise studio with an extensive schedule of the latest classes.
