A permit was issued last week for the interior renovation of existing office space on the 44th floor of the Willis Tower, located at 233 S Wacker Drive in The Loop. This permit was issued to Industrious, and while not much has been revealed, there will be changes to the existing co-working space. No structural work will be performed and there will not be a change of use for business.
Updated photos show the addition of mosaic-like cladding near the southwest side of Catalog, a near-complete three-story structure surrounding the base of Willis Tower in The Loop. This cladding marks the final exterior piece of EQ Group‘s 300,000-square-foot project at 233 S Wacker Drive, which houses updated tenant and visitor entrances, restaurants, and a third-floor meeting area by meeting space company Convene. Convene’s venue will offer tenants more than 90,000 square feet of rentable gathering areas. Atop the new structure is also 30,000 square feet of green space, accessible from the fourth floor of the original structure.
Recent photos show the final touches on Catalog, a 300,000-square-foot addition at the foot of the Willis Tower, formerly the Sears Tower. The project began welcoming visitors late last year, and both interior and exterior construction have continued alongside the partial occupancy.
YIMBY has recent photos of the nearly complete $500 million renovation of Willis Tower’s base. The project adds a variety of retail, entertainment, and private event options in a newly-built structure at the base of the 110-story tower.
