Hines Global Income Trust has entered an agreement to acquire the historic WGN-TV Studios building at 2501 West Bradley Pl. in Chicago’s North Center submarket.
The deal follows Hines Global’s recent acquisition of the first of four buildings in Bradley Business Center, a 97-percent leased, 23-acre mixed-use campus across the street from the WGN property.
2501 West Bradley Pl. encompasses 131,000 square feet and is fully leased to WGN-TV. The property’s central location offers convenient highway access and is near Chicago’s affluent North Side neighborhoods.
“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to add 2501 West Bradley Place to the Hines Global portfolio. Following our approach with the other successful businesses who call Bradley Business Center home, we look forward to furthering the asset’s rich history as home to WGN, one of the longtime go-to news products in the Chicago area,” said Will Renner, managing director in Hines’ Chicago office
