Opening one successful apartment building during a pandemic is nothing short of amazing, but opening two is defying all odds. Yet, that’s exactly what Taylor Johnson client Fifield Cos. did, proving once again that thoughtfully designed, service-oriented apartment buildings with in-demand amenities and desirable locations can experience strong leasing in even the most challenging times. When we issued a press release on the leasing milestones at Logan Apartments and Westerly, Fifield’s two new Class A rental communities in Chicago, Multi-Housing News was quick to profile them in a feature, with Bisnow Chicago, Connect Chicago and MultifamilyBiz.com soon following suit. Read more here about how the buildings’ smartly designed residences, ample work-from-home space, outdoor areas and stylish interiors (the work of TJ client Morgante Wilson Architects at Westerly) attracted renters during one of the most unprecedented times for the multifamily industry.

Well-appointed residences and work-from-home areas, like those shown here at Westerly, helped developer Fifield Cos. achieve leasing milestones during the pandemic.
