At Prime Group Realty Trust, our most important property is the value that we can help add to your business. For more information, contact us today at 312-917-1300.

We believe Chicago has distinct advantages over other markets due to its geographical location, role as a transportation hub, and its solid, diversified local economy. By focusing on the Chicago market, we have assembled a portfolio of Class A and B office and industrial buildings which meet a variety of tenant requirements. This expansive collection of buildings allows us to align ourselves with our tenants' needs.

Our specialization also offers benefits to tenants seeking the expertise of a seasoned property management group with a long-time working knowledge of the commercial real estate market of Chicago and its suburbs. Call 312-917-1300 to learn how our experienced management team can assist you with your Chicagoland real estate needs. 

Prime Group Realty Trust is proud to align itself with the best in 21st century environmental practices and policies. From reducing our emissions, to cutting excess lighting to installing state-of-the-art ventilation — to switching to HEPA-compliant vacuum cleaners — we know a clean environment is more than good business. It’s the key to a viable future for us all.

Just as each one of our properties takes a signature stand in its community, our commitment to serve the surrounding community, as well as the Chicago real estate community, continues to stand strong.

Our educational outreach includes hosting the Science in the Loop Program, which in 2007 promoted the importance of science education in our school systems. In the past year we were also instrumental in collecting school supplies for under resourced children, in cooperation with the Rolling Meadows Police Neighborhood Resource Center.

Similarly, our efforts to promote pubic health are also an important part of our role in the community. As our donations to the American Heart Association, the Greater Chicago Food Depository and the Alzheimer’s Society attest, we believe our good fortune is meaningful only to the extent we can share it with others.

Prime Group Realty Trust has won numerous awards for the quality of asset management we provide. What makes these awards so special is the manner in which they are voted upon and granted.
