S.C. Johnson Buys Building in Downtown Chicago, Will House Relocated Racine Employees There

RACINE -- S.C. Johnson announced in November 2015 that it would be relocating 175 jobs from its Racine headquarters down to Chicago.

Now we know where some of those workers are going to be located.

According to a report by the Milwaukee Business Journal, S.C. Johnson has recently purchased a Chicago building that is now home to the the Electrical Workers 134 located at 600 W. Washington Blvd., and will be moving part of their workforce there.

S.C. Johnson's new building is located just north of Union Station in downtown Chicago's West Loop Gate and is located about a mile and a half due west of Millennium Park.

According to the Business Journal, Crain's Chicago Business is also reporting that S.C. Johnson will lease space in a nearby office building possibly as overflow space. The IBEW building that S.C. Johnson bought is a little less than 15,000 square feet, and would be too small to house 175 workers.
