From the meeting
The Department of Real Estate Management asked for approval of a proposed Purchase and Sale agreement for 605 S. Wolcott Avenue in Chicago. The property was under a 99-year ground lease with CHDG Phase 1A1 (Office) Owner LLC, and the agenda said CCH occupied about 71,055 rentable square feet in a seven-story office building.
The County had three years left on its current lease term and three 10-year renewal options, and the buy-versus-lease analysis said the transaction would save about $18 million over 13 years. Negotiations were ongoing and final costs would be added before approval. Decision state: proposed and still open.
