Sterling Bay hired Telos Group’s Joy Jordan to help lease the office portion of its $6 billion Lincoln Yards mega-development on the North Side.
Jordan, who started at Telos when it opened in 2012, joins the prolific Chicago developer as executive vice president of leasing, according to Crain’s. She and current Sterling Bay Executive Vice President Ross Cora will lead the Lincoln Yards leasing efforts.
Jordan has overseen leasing at Willis Tower, 300 South Riverside, 20 North Wacker Drive, 550 West Adams Street and the upper floors of Macy’s on State Street. She began her career in 2008 with Chicago brokerage U.S. Equities Realty.
Plans for Lincoln Yards call for 14.5 million square feet of office, retail and residential space on former industrial land along the North Branch of the Chicago.
Jordan will be getting to work right away, with Sterling Bay planning to kick off construction with two office buildings at the far northern edge of the Lincoln Yards site next to the existing CH Robinson headquarters at 1515 West Webster Avenue. [Crain’s] — John O’Brien
