Knickpoint Ventures, owner of the sprawling 22-acre former Marshall Field’s warehouse complex on the Northwest Side, plans to create a film production campus on the site.
Chicago Tribune has reported that real estate developer Knickpoint, who has owned the property at 4000 W. Diversey Ave. since 2018, are in preliminary discussions with members of Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s administration.
Zain Koita, Knickpoint founder and managing partner, believes there is city support for the project and if all goes as planned, it could help expand film industry jobs at a time when the city faces a long economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.
