City Properties Corporation, in business since 1970, has pioneered the re-development of older, mixed use properties primarily in the River North area of Chicago. Under the direction of Ken Pearl, President of City Properties, these grand old buildings have been transformed into viable customized individual environments as commercial office suites, retail, galleries, entertainment and restaurant facilities. As City Properties grew, Ken Pearl was soon tagged with the moniker of “the Original Developer of River North”. Through the years City Properties has expanded its property management staff to accommodate the needs of our tenants’ growing businesses. We offer an in-house design staff, available to meet your design or re-construction requirements. The primary focus of City Properties has been and still is to balance the needs of its Tenants with the needs of each particular location and building. Each of our properties is distinctive because of our “hands-on” style of management.
