Prepare Your Building for a Flying Wallenda
This weekend Nik Wallenda, a seventh-generation member of the famed circus act the Flying Wallendas, will tightrope walk across the Chicago River. We asked a property manager what that means for the buildings involved.
“Whenever an event of such magnitude takes place, which puts your building and city in such an international spotlight, professional property managers intuitively get to work on the issues surrounding their property’s participation,” Behringer Harvard VP Mike Reilly, above, tells us. (In this case, Wallenda’s walking two-plus city blocks between the Marina City west tower and the Leo Burnett Building, then from the west tower to the east tower.)
