by Rebecca Walker — April 10, 2009—OfficeLinks, a leading provider of on-demand offices and meeting rooms with flexible terms, announced a major investment in Chicago with the opening of its first area office space.
Located on the 84th floor of the Sears Tower, the facility reduces companies’ office costs up to 60% by leveraging shared resources, says OfficeLinks. Risk is further mitigated with flexible agreements so businesses can expand and contract office requirements as needs change. Legal confusion is eliminated with simple, one-page agreements.
The OfficeLinks center contains 100 offices and 241 workstations in 30,000 square feet. Tenants have Polycom HD Videoconferencing with 22 kHz audio in StereoSurround, wireless connectivity, and a gigabit-speed network as well as a staffed reception area with full administrative service support for tenants and visitors.
OfficeLinks also offers high-end design and amenities such as ergonomically-superior lighting and furniture, flat-screen TVs, break rooms and a stocked pantry. Tenants can take advantage of Virtual Office programs, securing a Sears Tower address, telephone answering and other administrative services starting at $79 per month or a private office starting at $499 a month.
Built with a focus on environmental sustainability, the offices use locally-produced millwork and glass, and furniture, such as the 180 :Think” chairs made with 99 percent recyclable material, produced within 500 miles. OfficeLinks plans to purchase 100% “green” electric consumption over the next two years to further reduce the carbon footprint.
