Federal Buildings for Sale
Even the feds don't want to be in Chicago:
In its drive to sharply cut spending and shrink government, the Trump administration put for-sale signs effectively on some of the federal government’s most iconic and biggest buildings in downtown Chicago on Tuesday.
The General Services Administration, which manages real estate for the federal government, released an online list of 443 “non-core” properties across the country. Included on it are two Loop high-rises: the Kluczynski and Metcalfe federal buildings.
Also on the list of Chicago properties that the administration is ready to unload are the U.S. Post Office’s Loop Station in Federal Plaza and the regional office for the Social Security Administration, according to the GSA website.
Well, since certain reporting is claiming something like half or more of federal employees aren't even showing up to work, it makes sense to unload empty space to save money. Plus, Conehead's driving everything else away - why not the feds, too?
Downtown real estate is going to crash hard with costs-per-square-foot falling to the lowest in history.

Lori Lightfoot didn’t what the Feds here and either does Brandon Johnson. I think the Federal Government should leave and sell off all their land to migrant supporters that should make Democrat’s happy.
Chicago’s death spiral continues. The Democrat’s are Un-American. The Democrat’s don’t support American values. They attacked women, and sweet home made apple pie. Who would think that women fought for women’s rights and Democrat’s want to take it all away. Women want women only bathrooms and women only sports. I can no longer support the Democrats.
I’m happy the Federal property is being sold.
But where’s da peoples gonna protest
Make it low income housing. Simple. Put all your sanctuary dwellers up. Let the party get started.
I love it. Maybe now the city will think about rejoining America.
Yep. New sheriff in town.
Making and saving the taxpayers money. Awesome! The Chicago Public Schools need to learn this with half the schools not being used appropriately. Combine them, repurpose some and sell others.
God bless Trump.
An opportunity for more public housing?
Federal housing is being reduced significantly, so rule out public housing.
I love that idea!
Hope they make the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms building into a convenience store!
Off to such a great start, though the dems and the media are so used to Sleepy Joe & Kamala. (Where are they?) Pathetic they are!
House the migrants in those buildings
Exactly! Downtown was in a downward spiral since the riots! Who cares
What happened to the asshole (liberal) that used to always post about how really vibrant the loop real estate market was?
Time to open a city owned single cigarette, grape pop and hot Cheetos franchise downtown...
Agreed and thanks to Democrat politicians, Chicago is sliding into bankruptcy hell. But wait, who put the Democrats in charge all these years of destroying the city, county and state - the voters. No fools like Democrat fools.
He was robbed, beaten and sexually violated in front of his vibrant Loop Rug and Vap shop. When asked what he will do after bankruptcy court, he proudly said he will run for Alderman and make some friggin real money.
