Sterling Bay's improvements to 111 North Canal have paid off handsomely. The firm received a rebate check for $413k from ComEd, the second-largest rebate for a commercial real estate building in the history of ComEd's "Smart Ideas" program.

The check reflects savings Sterling Bay realized from the replacement of 111 North Canal's chiller system and the installation of a building automation control system. According to ComEd, steps taken at the building saved more than 2M kWh, or enough energy to power 306 homes for a year.
Sterling Bay bought 111 North Canal for $111M in December 2012. The firm sold the 860k SF building to JP Morgan Asset Management in a $305M deal last year, but still manages the building.
