Franklin Partners Opens Redeveloped Office Building in Naperville, Illinois

NAPERVILLE, ILL. — Franklin Partners has opened The Shuman, a redeveloped 350,000-square-foot office building in Naperville. The property, located at 263 Shuman Blvd., formerly served as the headquarters for OfficeMax. Designed by Wright Heerema Architects, the multi-tenant property now includes a five-story atrium with a custom light installation. A staircase that doubles as seating space leads to the amenity floor, which includes private meeting rooms, a lounge, game room, golf simulator and fitness center. Fiona’s Fare is a dining area while Manan is an in-house coffee bar. Francis Prock and David Florent of Colliers International are marketing the property for lease. Thus far, approximately 35,000 square feet of space has been leased. Franklin Partners acquired the property in April 2018 in a joint venture with Bixby Bridge Capital.
