Floors are read from suite numbers on Chicago / Cook County business records (suite 4900 → floor 49). A floor with no record is not necessarily vacant — it may be mechanical, occupied by the owner, or let to a business whose receipt carries no suite. Receipts also lag reality by months. This shows where the public record places businesses, not a rent roll or an availability report. A stretch of quiet floors is not contiguous space for rent — it is contiguous silence in the record, which is the closest thing the public record has to that question and worth exactly what it costs to check.

From the General Services Administration's monthly lease inventory: the rent the federal government actually pays, the square feet behind it, the dates, and the renewal options remaining. A fully serviced lease includes services and utilities, so it is not comparable to a net rent. This is one tenant, not the market. Federal space is often fitted for a specific agency and leased on government terms, so treat it as a real, checkable data point rather than an asking rent for the building.

Data provenance — public records only

  • Chicago / Cook County — Cook County Assessor parcel, commercial-valuation and sales datasets (owner names, mailing addresses, priced sales with buyer and seller); City of Chicago active business licences for occupancy. Licence addresses are street-level, and state-licensed professions are absent from the city roll.
  • U.S. General Services Administration — lease inventory — Active federal leases published monthly: annual rent actually paid, rentable square feet, effective and expiration dates, termination right, renewal options remaining and the lessor's name.

Every fact on this page is drawn from the government records above — no listing sites, no scraped platforms, no third-party images. Facts from public records are uncopyrightable; each tenancy row carries its source and match confidence. Records can lag reality — a business-tax receipt or registration at an address is evidence of occupancy, not a lease confirmation.
