Steve Grzanich has the business news of the day with the Wintrust Business Minute.

New York developer 601W, the owner of the Old Post Office in Chicago, reportedly has a purchase contract for the 30-story office building at 303 E. Wacker. Crain’s says the purchase price has not been disclosed but people familiar with the deal say it could be about $63 million. Seller, Beacon Capital Partners, bought the building in 2018 for $182 million and spent $32 million for renovations and upgrades. 303 recently lost engineering firm AECOM and the U.S Soccer Federation, which is moving to Atlanta. The building is 77% leased and is also home to WGN Radio and parent Nexstar Media Group.
