About This Project

PCA conducted a Property Condition Assessment of the LaSalle Bank Building at 135 South LaSalle in Chicago, Illinois — a 48-story high-rise office property originally built in 1932. The building totals approximately 1,258,205 square feet on a 1.4034-acre site and includes 49 elevators and four escalators. PCA’s scope addressed the major building systems, envelope components, and conveying equipment relevant to the engagement.

The engagement included architectural, structural, roofing, and mechanical/electrical/plumbing/limited fire- and life-safety evaluations under ASTM E2018 protocols, along with a vertical transportation assessment and a public records review. PCA documented observed conditions and quantified deferred maintenance and remaining-useful-life projections for the client’s reserve and capital planning. The vertical transportation assessment produced a reserve estimate for elevator and escalator replacement timing, while the public records review supplemented field findings with documentation context. The consolidated findings gave the client a defensible basis for prioritizing immediate repairs and sizing reserves across the property’s principal systems.
