Law firm Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP has signed a long-term lease that expands its Chicago office, taking an additional floor at 191 N. Wacker Drive.
Drinker, which early last year acquired Chicago firm Gardner Carton & Douglas LLP, now has the top nine levels in the 37-floor tower, occupying 180,190 square feet.
The expansion at 191 N. Wacker gives Drinker an additional 25,000 square feet in the building, which Gardner anchored when it was built in 2002. Drinker’s lease now runs through December 2021, according to real estate research firm CoStar Group Inc.
Drinker needed the additional space because of growth throughout the firm, including Drinker’s human resources practice as well as its litigation and health care groups, says Andrew Kassner, the executive partner of Philadelphia-based Drinker.
“Fortunately for us, we’re very happy with not only how we are doing nationally in our firm but also with the performance of our Chicago office,” says Mr. Kassner, who is based in Philadelphia. “We’ve said from the beginning that we anticipate growing in our Chicago office. . . .We were simply running out of space.”
