The 41-story building at 130 East Randolph Street is currently in the midst of a sale to Sterling Bay, for which Tronc&#8217;s move would provide added value.<\/p>\n<p>This news trails not far after <a href=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/tribune-tower-sold\/\" target=\"_blank\">last year&#8217;s announcement of the sale of Tribune Tower<\/a> to CIM Group and Golub &amp; Company. The neo-Gothic landmark has housed the media company since the mid-1920s. Although not confirmed, it&#8217;s said that the tower will become a mixed-use property that includes condo, hotel, and retail space.<\/p>\n<p>It was always Tronc&#8217;s intention to keep its headquarters in Chicago. Should the media company move forward with One Prudential Plaza, Tronc&#8217;s headquarters as well as Chicago Tribune&#8217;s newsroom would occupy the space by mid-next year.<\/p>\n<p>Designed by the predecessors of Murphy\/Jahn architects, the Prudential building was Chicago&#8217;s tallest before Willis Tower. Another upcoming <a href=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/company-headquarters-chicago\/\" target=\"_blank\">major headquarter move<\/a> to the complex includes Wilson Sporting Goods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A recent report from the Chicago Tribune shares that a company move might be on the horizon.
