Frequently Asked Questions

Based on the range of industrial spaces listed for rent on CommercialCafe.com, the average asking rent in Chicago is $13.84 per square foot. However, there are several factors that influence the asking rate for renting an industrial property. For instance, prices vary depending on the property location, the age and upkeep, the property size, quality rating (Class A, B, or C), as well as based on any unique features it offers.

You can find 24 Class C industrial space listing(s) in Chicago. The asking rate for local industrial space in this property class averages $21.5 per square foot. The highest asking price currently on the market is $21.5 per square foot.
There are various types of industrial real estate properties designed to provide solutions for various business needs. Warehouses, which are essential in storage and logistics, often have high ceilings and loading docks and can be equipped with industrial-grade heating or cooling systems. Manufacturing facilities are differently equipped to facilitate the production of various goods. Meanwhile, flex space is a type of industrial real estate that can accommodate multiple uses at the same time, such as storage, distribution, light manufacturing, and office space.

Among the industrial space listings available for rent in Chicago, you can find:
- Currently, 70 Warehouse/Distribution listing(s) on the local market. Leasing opportunities in this category include properties between 1,625 square feet and 302,000 square feet.
- Currently, 30 Flex - Industrial listing(s) on the local market. Leasing opportunities in this category include properties between 450 square feet and 151,800 square feet.

Finding the ideal industrial space for your venture in Chicago depends on your particular combination of business needs and preferences. Considerations might include aspects such as: the property proximity to major highways, ports, railroad or public transportation hubs; the cost of renting space in the area; qualified labor availability; and zoning particularities. While other types of commercial real estate are more widely distributed across a market, industrial space tends to largely be concentrated under zoning requirements specific to it.

As such, in Chicago you are most likely to find industrial or warehouse space for rent in the West Town submarket, which is currently home to the highest number of local industrial for rent listings on our site. Other local submarkets to look at for industrial space leasing opportunities include: Near West Side and Avondale.
While a lot of aspects of what makes good quality industrial space are subjective, there are some that are objectively important to any business looking to operate out of such spaces. These are typically captured in property class ratings, that are generally referred to as Class A, B, or C.

In Chicago, you can find 9 listing(s) located in industrial property rated Class A. Typically, Class A industrial properties are relatively new developments in prime locations, featuring high ceilings, easy access to highways and other transportation options, along with generous parking capacity.

Leasing opportunities on the local market currently include 25 listing(s) rated Class B industrial space. While it is a tier down from Class A, industrial space in this rating category can still offer reasonably high quality for most enterprises. Class B typically includes buildings that are slightly older, property that has been renovated and is in overall good condition but might not include top-tier building systems or state-of-the-art features.

Class C industrial properties in Chicago currently offer 24 listing(s) for rent.
The most common industrial listing space size you can find in Chicago falls in the less than 100,000 sqft range. Specifically, the market is home to 189 listing(s) in this size category.

You can also find 20 industrial listing(s) sized 100,000 sqft to 500,000 sqft and 1 industrial listing(s) in the 500,000 sqft to 1,000,000 sqft range.
Zoning requirements are essential in the selection of a prospective lease, as it has a direct influence over the kind of industrial activity that can be undertaken on the property. Each city has its specific Zoning Department that sets up the codes and you can secure the services of a commercial real estate broker who specializes in industrial properties to help you understand the local zoning requirements and find a property that meets your needs.
