The building where it all began! 73 West Monroe holds a special place in our hearts as our original flagship location. This jewel box of a building offers five floors of renovated workspace with a bright ground floor lobby, large bike room, and stunning views of the Exelon Plaza clock and fountain. Built in 1881 and extensively restored, it retains original details like rough wood beams and ornate ironwork despite its updated finishes.
