About Green Exchange

Green Exchange will be the first business community of its kind committed to environmental sustainability, profit and positive social impact, furthering Chicago’s efforts to become the greenest city in the United States. The 272,000 square foot concrete loft building aspires to LEED Platinum certification and will be home to more than 100 green businesses offering a unique collection of leading edge products and services to the environmentally conscientious consumer. This collaborative community is designed to be a convergence point for the green community to share ideas and best practices, network, and provide an environment that actively fosters tenant success.

Located at the Diversey Avenue interchange along the Kennedy Expressway, Green Exchange hopes to catapult green businesses from niche to mainstream by substantially elevating their levels of access and awareness.  For consumers, Green Exchange will offer a uniquely rich selection of green goods and services, as well as provide a variety of ways to regularly engage in the green living discourse, such as seminars, world-renowned speakers and family-oriented events.
