McCaffery brings The Lovesac Company to West Loop hotspot and suburban shopping center
McCaffery’s tenant representation services secure The Lovesac Company’s two newest locations, at 911 West Randolph Street in Chicago’s West Loop, and 302 Commons Drive, Suite 2080 at the Geneva Commons in Geneva, Illinois. Both are expected to open by year-end 2020.
“We helped bring Billy Reid to Randolph Street in 2015, and in the years since, retailers from Louis Vuitton to Lululemon have come to the West Loop and seen great success. I see Lovesac fitting very well into this increasingly diversifying neighborhood,” says Dan McCaffery, CEO of the development firm.
The direct-to-consumer home furnishing brand’s 1,732 square foot space in the West Loop is situated on one of the most coveted streets in the neighborhood, often referred to as Chicago’s “Restaurant Row,” surrounded by Michelin-star dining and boutique shopping. Visitors will find Kristin Cavallari’s Uncommon James, Warby Parker, and McCaffery repped tenant, Billy Reid, just next door. Two blocks away from the Morgan Green Line stop, and less than one block from the McDonald’s headquarters and Soho House, Lovesac is ideally positioned in Chicago’s hottest neighborhood for young professionals.
Lovesac will occupy 2,500 square feet at Geneva Commons, a lively shopping center comprised of more than 50 stores and restaurants in Chicago’s western suburb of Geneva. Geneva is a charming and community-oriented suburb, located just north of Naperville and an hour outside of Chicago.
“We are excited to be opening two new showrooms in Chicagoland, as we continue to expand our showroom footprint and grow the Lovesac brand. We look forward to continuing to help people reduce their ecological footprint by developing products that are built to last a lifetime, and are designed to evolve with the customer, provide long-term utility and ultimately reduce the amount of furniture discarded into landfills,” said Shawn Nelson, CEO & Founder.
