Neuberger Berman signed a 52K SF lease at 191 North Wacker in the West Loop.

The investment firm will move to the top two floors of the 734K SF building.

Savills' Robert Sevim and Jim Wenk oversaw lease negotiations for Neuberger Berman and were supported by Adam Southard.

“It is exceedingly rare to see top two floors of prime office space available in the West Loop and the top block of space is part of the original anchor tenant’s space in the building,” Wenk said in a press release. “This is a perfect match of tenant and landlord.”
