There are encouraging signs emerging for downtown Chicago’s office market.
A recent REJournals article covering JLL’s 2026 outlook projects that office leasing volume in Chicago’s central business district could reach 8.5 million square feet this year - a 10% increase from 2025. What stands out is not simply the expected increase in activity. It is the continued focus on quality.

River North continues to evolve, and that may be exactly what the neighborhood needs.
The planned conversion of the Leahy Building on Ontario Street into residential apartments is another example of River North becoming a more balanced, mixed-use community.
