This ever-evolving landscape could lead to a new atmosphere in and around the city as the cities neighborhoods begin to have more of an office space offering. However, some employers are realizing that this is not such a bad thing. As businesses relocate out of the heart of the city, they are moving closer to employees. The feeling is that this will attract more employees by bringing the job closer to the talent pool.
The net result of all of this for the larger community will be a neighborhood scene with many mixed use and other developments.

However, as this trend persists, the landscape of Chicago’ commercial real estate appears to be shifting.
