Michigan Plaza consists of two towers--205 N. Michigan Ave., a 44-story tower, and 225 N. Michigan Ave., a 25-story tower--which total nearly two million square feet. The plaza is currently about 96% leased. Asking lease rates at Michigan Plaza range between about $28 and $32 per square foot, gross.
Amenities at the building include onsite management, 24-hour security, a concierge, 500 parking spaces, a bus that travels to and from the West Loop train stations, and retailers. The buildings, constructed in 1982, were designed by Fujikawa Johnson & Associates. The plaza underwent renovations last year which brought new signage and interior storefronts, landscaping, a canopy and frameless glass entrance, and a new security desk and turnstiles.
