McDonald's Corporation Headquarters

Chicago, Illinois

 

The design of integrated rooftop amenity decks strategically emphasizes McDonald’s relocation to Downtown Chicago, and helps to position the company to attract and retain a younger demographic of talented employees.

McDonald’s Corporation joined a growing number of corporations relocating from suburban locations to urban centers to attract employees who desire an office in an energetic urban environment with a variety of food, beverage and entertainment options nearby - and who value a work space with a wide range of amenities.  

The 6th floor contains two amenity decks flanking the Innovation Center, which expands its useable space. In a subtle nod to the traditional corporate model, there is an 8th floor amenity deck accessible only from the senior executive floor. A 9th floor amenity deck and terrace is adjacent to the facility's interior amenity spaces - thus providing a seamless expansions of these interior spaces to these outdoor areas.
