Farpoint Development

We’re giving a huge shout-out to Stream Realty Partners and the tenants at 6300 N. River Road for their incredible heart this holiday season.

Stream hosted a pair of wonderful events that did more than just spread holiday cheer. First, they brought our tenant community together for a festive "Cocoa & Cookies" social. Then, building on that spirit of togetherness, they also organized a gift drive to support the Salvation Army’s Angel Tree program right here in Des Plaines.

Thanks to the efforts of the Stream team and our generous tenants, 25 local children and seniors will have a brighter Christmas morning this year. 🎁

At Farpoint, we’re proud to provide the space, but it’s our partners and tenants who provide the spirit. Happy Holidays to all!

Medical office buildings are back on the rise in Chicago, with some of the fastest-growing rates in the country.

Demand remains strong, driven by an aging population and a need for more outpatient care.

Developers are turning to adaptive reuse to meet market demand.

While these conversions can be difficult (many buildings don't meet medical requirements), they allow tenants to move in faster than with new construction.

The opening of Northwestern’s new outpatient center in Bronzeville marks a signal of the neighborhood’s growth.

We're energized by the commitment and momentum shaping Chicago, as Farpoint advances our Bronzeville Lakefront development, a future global hub for innovation and wellness.

"How can architecture encourage resilience?"

That's the question posed by the exhibition Living With / Vivre Avec, coming to Chicago on November 8.

Developers must be able to find value in what was once considered useless or obsolete, giving life to outdated buildings and infrastructure.

Take several of our properties:

1308 N Elston: This former light-fixture factory has been transformed into a top-tier working environment.

8522 Lafayette: A formerly neglected manufacturing plant now reimagined as a charter school serving multiple Chicago school districts.

Prairie Shores: Originally built to meet workforce housing needs in the 1950s and 1960s, it's now been renovated and expanded with a new community hub designed for the needs of our tenants.

The exhibition examines how architecture can help sustain life in a world of instability—something we understand and strive to make meaningful change with.
