CHICAGO <\/strong>(July 18, 2024) \u2014 AECOM, the world\u2019s trusted infrastructure consulting firm, today announced it has signed a 23,000 square-foot full-floor lease at One Prudential Plaza (Pru Plaza) to consolidate its Chicago-area offices. The move, which will take place in December 2024, brings 432 employees to one location for improved collaboration and access to the latest technology and amenities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur Chicago team has delivered some of the city\u2019s most vital and iconic infrastructure projects and this investment solidifies our commitment to the region,\u201d said Matt Crane, regional chief executive of AECOM\u2019s U.S. West business. \u201cPru Plaza will provide the infrastructure to build on our current momentum and enable us to hire additional talent to build the Chicago office\u2019s legacy as the city continues to evolve.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed to embrace AECOM\u2019s Freedom to Grow philosophy, emphasis was placed on creating an adaptable office space that could shift over time while also providing a variety of settings to accommodate evolving work styles and better user choice. For example, the new space can be easily transformed from work hubs to social meeting spaces, to after-hours event hosting, all in support of creating meaningful and engaging experiences for both interfacing with clients and the larger community. Previously, AECOM\u2019s Chicago office hosted the annual Disadvantaged Business Enterprise outreach program and ACE Mentor Program events. In the new office space, it plans to expand its community involvement with a new lecture series for STEAM students looking to get an inside look at working in the AEC space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe workplace of the future is one that inspires employees and aids collaboration,\u201d said Denise Casalino, executive vice president and chief growth officer for AECOM\u2019s U.S. West region. \u201cOur new home in Pru Plaza is a prime example, providing an opportunity to bring together all of our capabilities to better serve our clients and engage with the community in a meaningful way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Chicago, AECOM supports various professional and community engagement organizations, including Professional Women in Construction, American Council of Engineering Companies, The American Institute of Architects, Hispanic American Construction Industry Association and many others. The Company has also been involved in several high-profile projects in the region, including reconstruction of the I55\/Lake Shore Drive Interchange<\/a>, 31st<\/sup> Street Harbor<\/a>, 41st<\/sup> and 43rd<\/sup> Street Pedestrian Bridges and Midway Airport<\/a>. It is currently working on the O\u2019Hare 21 initiative, the most significant expansion in the airport\u2019s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
