On Feb. 27, Macy’s announced via a press release it will be selling the 8th through the 14th floors of its flagship State Street store in Chicago to a private real estate fund sponsored by Brookfield Asset Management. Brookfield intends to convert the floors into office space.
Macy’s will receive a total of $30 million for the space ($27 million of consideration and a $3 million contribution for certain improvements). The company says the floors were largely unused and it will use the money from the sale to “make Macy’s on State Street a more vibrant shopping destination.”
The transaction is anticipated to close in the first half of fiscal 2018.
