Located in Chicago's vibrant West Loop neighborhood, this contemporary office suite at 123 N Desplaines St offers a thoughtfully designed single-floor workspace that balances productivity with comfort. The layout comprises three private offices enclosed by sleek glass partitions, providing both visual openness and acoustic privacy, alongside three additional versatile spaces suited for collaboration or casual meetings. The main lounge area is a standout feature, anchored by generous sectional seating in a calming blue tone, complemented by a mix of coral and mint accent chairs arranged around round tables — ideal for informal gatherings. Floor-to-ceiling windows wrap the perimeter, flooding the space with abundant natural light and framing striking panoramic views of the Chicago skyline and surrounding high-rises. Roller shades allow for flexible light control throughout the day. Lush indoor plants are strategically placed throughout, adding a refreshing biophilic element to the clean, white-walled interior. The patterned carpet tile flooring ties the design together with subtle texture. Private offices are fitted with light wood furnishings and glass walls, maintaining an airy, transparent aesthetic. An adjacent outdoor terrace, visible through the windows, further enhances the sense of openness and connection to the city beyond.

Chicago’s West Loop has earned a reputation as one of the most exciting areas to eat, drink, and experience the city's best, so it’s no wonder locals are envious of anyone who gets to call this neighborhood home. Where industrial warehouses once stood, swanky high-rise apartments and condos now provide unbeatable views of the river and the city skyline. West Loop's convenient central location puts renters within walking distance of Downtown, Little Italy, and the Medical District. Numerous bus and rail lines passing through make it easy to commute anywhere in the city.
West Loop locals enjoy a mind-boggling selection of restaurants, bars, specialty grocery stores, art galleries, and performance venues. The mix of modern and classical architecture combined with the various public art installations reflects the neighborhood’s unique historic and creative influences, and a distinctive European flair permeates the whole environment.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
