500 West Monroe’s Stunning Lobby Renovation

Our team recently completed a stunning lobby renovation at 500 West Monroe that features a new curtainwall entrance; multi-tiered, curved ceilings; high-end furniture; and massive custom-made, hand-sewn rugs imported from overseas—a truly inviting space for building tenants and guests.

 

This dynamic project required extensive #logistics planning and coordination to work in the heavily occupied building.
