AmTrust RE completed a 9,630-square-foot office lease transaction with Skyline Construction at One East Wacker, AmTrust’s 41-story, 560,000-square-foot office tower overlooking the Chicago Riverwalk and River North. Jon Milonas and Kyle Kamin of CBRE represented the tenant in the transaction.

Skyline Construction’s new Chicago office will be nearly three times larger than Skyline’s current space. The company is a commercial general contractor in the Chicago market with offices throughout the United States, and the move aligns with Skyline’s growth.

“Skyline’s decision to relocate to One East Wacker is the latest example of the ‘flight to quality,’ where leading employers are increasingly committed to providing their employees with an energized office environment, from a work, social and wellness perspective,” said Patrick Kearney, AmTrust’s Managing Director.

In 2023, AmTrust selected Skyline to lead a major capital improvements program for the trophy office tower, upgrading the building’s exterior and conducting comprehensive interior renovations throughout the property.
