Law firm Raymond James has completed the relocation of a majority of its Chicago-based associates to its new West Loop office.

The 58,196-square-foot lease spans nearly two floors at 120 South Riverside Plaza and accommodates financial advisors and associates. In August 2023, Ivanhoé Cambridge, alongside Hines, announced that Raymond James had signed the lease for the expansive space that combines multiple teams previously located at 550 W. Washington Blvd. and 222 S. Riverside Plaza.

“Chicago, with its rich historical legacy and strategic positioning, serves as a critical hub within the financial industry. With the opening of this multidisciplinary office, we wholeheartedly reaffirm our dedication to expanding our footprint in both Chicago and across the Midwest,” said Chris Fils, Chicagoland complex manager for Raymond James & Associates.

The recently renovated office includes a media room, a client conferencing center with white glove concierge service, and a dozen associate meeting spaces with video conferencing technology and state-of-the-art features.

Unico Properties LLC and Pinnacle Partners have completed an extensive renovation of Washington Park, transforming the building into a unique office and retail property along the revitalized Seattle Waterfront.

Located at 68 S. Washington Street in the Pioneer Square neighborhood, Washington Park is a 52,809-square-foot building that includes office space, a rooftop penthouse and patio, and ground-floor retail space. The Broderick Group and Real Retail are marketing Washington Park for lease.

“Our major transformation of this historic property complements the beautiful, new waterfront and creates a stunning home and turnkey new space for tenants who are looking for office space with modern infrastructure and historic charm,” said Liz Thorson, Unico Properties Director, Market Leader.

The historic property was originally constructed in 1890, and Washington Park is situated directly south of Seattle’s central business district at the southern end of the city’s Waterfront Seattle project, which is rebuilding Alaskan Way between South King and Pike Streets. Washington Park is also part of the Opportunity Zone program.
