Office-to-residential conversion projects continue to be a popular strategy for expanding the supply of multifamily housing, with more than 25 such developments currently underway in Chicago. One of the latest, The Bellwether, is a 14-story, 117-unit conversion of former office building 79 W. Monroe in Chicago’s Loop. Taylor Johnson client RMK Management Corp. was selected to oversee leasing and property management for The Bellwether apartments due to its experience managing numerous high-end multifamily communities in the city, as well as its award-winning resident service programming. The community is already nearly 60% leased and first move-ins are expected to begin by early September. We shared this latest news about The Bellwether with media, resulting in coverage in Connect CRE Chicago & Midwest, REBusinessOnline, REjournals, Urbanize Chicago and Yield PRO.
