You may have heard: we are on the move! We<br />
have signed a lease at the REALTOR ® building<br />
at 430 N. Michigan, with a projected move-in<br />
of December <strong>2016</strong>. We assumed possession<br />
and began construction in September.<br />
We’ve been blogging as construction progresses,<br />
giving you the inside scoop on what our new space<br />
will look like and the tools you’ll be able to take<br />
advantage of as a Chicago REALTOR ® . Here’s a look<br />
at the renderings and floor plans. For progress shots<br />
and a breakdown of our renovation experience, check<br />

C.A.R.’s Space Planning and Design Work Group<br />
worked on the new office design with staff, project<br />
manager Jones Lang LaSalle, design firm Gensler<br />
and furniture distributor Henricksen.<br />
When designing the office for our future, we<br />
sought to create an open, inviting and collaborative<br />
environment for our members, staff and students.<br />
The creation of flexible spaces means that these<br />
areas serve a variety of purposes, including<br />
“touch down” stations for our members to utilize.<br />
Additionally, expanded technology, including<br />
improved cell phone connectivity for all major<br />
providers and improved A/V in classrooms, feature<br />
heavily into our vision for the new space.<br />
RECEPTION<br />
One of the challenges we tackled in the new office design<br />
was an open, engaging reception area that is central to<br />
the office. The new design addresses this, placing<br />
reception front and center immediately off the elevators,<br />
with improved transaction space for students to register<br />
and check in for classes, and members to obtain help with<br />
SentriLock or dues. There will also be a small refreshment<br />
bar for your convenience.<br />
