Spring 2024 Chicago Trip
WIRE went on an overnight trip to Chicago! We started the day off at the Harris Point Chicago office, where we got an overview of their asset class and the leasing process. That night we networked with WREAA at Punchbowl Social. We had a jam-packed Friday: a presentation and tour from Sterling Bay, a Fulton Market walking tour from an industry leader, and a presentation from Stream Realty Partners. Lastly, we went on the Chicago River Architecture Tour and learned the history behind the city's most famous developments. Special thank you to Emma Wells and Julia Schulze for all your hard work planning this awesome trip!
