Also a quote from the developer:
Quote:
The developer has not yet announced any tenants for the building, but Murphy is “already being bombarded by requests” by potential users, he said Friday.
“We almost have the entire building accounted for, which shows you what kind of market it’s been,” Murphy said.

This is precisely why the West Loop is doing well. Space needs are being distributed among more small, boutiquish buildings.
You aren’t seeing massive 750 ft office towers like in the Loop. If you did, the West Loop would build out far more slowly, plus these huge towers would turn into massive albatrosses overnight if demand suddenly changed.
The smaller buildings are more nimble and able to accommodate for changing times. Despite my love for skyscrapers, I really love how this hood is developing. Now we just need to do something about ground floor parking/blank walls in some of the residential projects and we will be all set!
