111 Point Achieves 65 Percent Leased Milestone in 100 Days

Boutique River North Office-to-Apartment Conversion Welcomed First Residents in May

 

CHICAGO, ILL. (July 21, 2026) – 111 Point, an office-to-apartment conversion, announces it has surpassed the 65 percent leased milestone, with 100 of its 153 luxury apartment residences now leased since pre-leasing kicked off in April and the property first welcomed residents in May. 

 

Designed by Pappageorge Haymes Partners and developed by Path Construction and WindWave Real Estate, with Path also serving as the project’s general contractor, 111 Point transformed a former office building—previously occupied by Salesforce and WeWork—into modern luxury residences across floors 5 through 10.

 

“We have been thrilled with the market’s response to 111 Point,” said Jon Cordell, Managing Partner at WindWave Real Estate. “This adaptive reuse development seamlessly blends modern design with urban convenience, offering residents condo-quality finishes, an exceptional location, and a thoughtfully curated amenity package.”

 

“Creating a sanctuary in the heart of River North was our primary focus,” said Ric Krause, CEO/President at Path Construction. “Given the strong leasing momentum we’ve seen, we’re proud to bring these new residences to one of Chicago’s most vibrant neighborhoods.”

 

The team behind 111 Point also includes Cushman & Wakefield, which provides property management services, and Luxury Living, which leads the property’s leasing and marketing efforts.

 

“Since pre-leasing began in April, we’ve seen strong demand from renters seeking new-construction opportunities in River North,” said Amy Galvin, CEO of Luxury Living. “With limited new apartment deliveries in River North over the past few years, renters have been eager for a new-construction option that combines modern design, an outstanding location, and a highly curated resident experience.”

 

Located at 111 W. Illinois St., each unit features 10- to 11-foot ceilings, expansive windows, generous walk-in closets, in-unit laundry, and large kitchens.

111 Point’s curated collection of amenities is designed to support wellness, productivity, and connection. The 10th floor features a state-of-the-art fitness center with cardio and strength-training equipment, an all-season outdoor wellness terrace complete with a sauna and hot tub, coworking spaces, and a resident lounge.
