As the anchor tenant in a new highrise along the Chicago River, the Chicago headquarters of this international law firm occupies roughly 650,000 square feet of the new building's overall square footage on 26 floors of the 60-story highrise. Kirkland & Ellis anticipates LEED Silver Certification for the tenant buildout.
For this project, Rise led and managed design coordination; procurement; construction; furniture, fixture and equipment coordination; and tenant move-in. Rise also represented Kirkland & Ellis in tenant negotiations for the developer's lease/workletter, leading the effort in areas including Core and Shell design considerations and construction provisions for special tenant requirements, schedule milestones and site access/logistics, allowing concurrent construction of tenant work and the base building.
