Crain Communications has announced that it will move its Chicago office on March 31, 2012 to three floors of the 150 N. Michigan Avenue building at the corner of Randolph. The company is currently located at 360 N. Michigan Avenue. 
The building, once known as the Smurfit-Stone Building and the Stone Container Building, will be renamed the Crain Communications Building after the firm moves into the space, according to a press release.
