Pru is located in the East Loop submarket, which is home to both a prestigious tenant roster and many of Chicago’s premier cultural institutions including: the Art Institute of Chicago, the Goodman Theatre and Orchestra Hall. The building spaces provide breathtaking views of Lake Michigan, Millennium and Maggie Daley parks, the Chicago River and the Chicago skyline.

Pru Overview

PRU ONE | 130 E Randolph

Pru One, completed in 1955, was the first major building constructed in Chicago after World War II. As the tallest building in the city for more than a decade, 41-story Pru One was home to the famous “Top of the Rock,” an observatory viewed by more than eight million people from around the world. The lobby and other public areas underwent extensive renovation during the construction of Pru Two in 1990. The redevelopment included major renovation of all elevators, lobby, and public areas; the addition of the state-of-the-art heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems; as well as updated Security and life-safety systems. A new granite façade, matching that of Pru Two, and sealed windows were installed at Pru One, ensuring the building’s integrity into the 21st Century.

PRU TWO | 180 North Stetson Avenue

Pru Two, opened in 1990, has won numerous awards for its distinctive architecture. Its exterior features a series of illuminated reflective glass and granite chevron setbacks, which create additional corner offices and give the building a unique identity on Chicago’s skyline.
