Friedman Properties has retained brokerage firm Savills to lead leasing efforts for Medinah Temple in Chicago’s River North neighborhood.
Located just steps from the Magnificent Mile at 600 N. Wabash Ave., Medinah Temple features approximately 132,600 square feet of interior space over five levels. The Moorish Revival building is currently home to the temporary Bally’s Chicago casino. Bally’s Chicago will occupy the property until it relocates to its permanent location in 2027. The Savills team of Todd Siegel, Philip Golding and Kimberly Wiskup will lead the search for a new user.
Friedman Properties acquired the building in 2000 and partnered with state and local agencies to save it from demolition. Medinah Temple reopened in 2003 as the nation’s first Bloomingdale’s Home Store. It was replaced by Bally’s Chicago in 2023. Medinah Temple is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been designated a Chicago landmark.
