Lease terms were not revealed. However, published gross lease rates at Equity Office Properties' 44-story West Loop asset range from $22 per sf to $25 per sf.

The building's location near transportation—it is on the other side of the Chicago River from entrances to Metra's two busiest commuter rail terminals—was offered as a reason for Klein, Thorpe & Jenkins renewing at the Civic Opera Building.

Equis Corp. SVP Steve Schneider and associate David Fleming represented Klein, Thorpe & Jenkins. Equity Office Properties' Ellen May handled negotiations for the largest US office REIT.
