Direct answer

22 West Washington is a Loop office building completed in 2008 and also published as 22WW, the Morningstar Building and the CBS 2 Broadcast Center. Public evidence resolves its identity, but not its parcel, current operating authority, loading, access, life-safety or telecom procedures.

Canonical identity

This Public Seed resolves one office-building entity and preserves historical and current-facing aliases without treating Block 37 as a campus. Conflicting floor, area, parcel and ownership signals remain visible rather than normalized.

Property typeCommercial office
Management routeNo current building manager, engineer, security desk or operating authority was verified. Colliers is a public leasing contact only.
Ownership claimHistorical sources identify Golub and Prudential-related ownership, but current legal title and parcel ownership were not verified.

Area claims stay separate

Gross, rentable, and office area are not interchangeable. Factum stores each measurement with its source meaning instead of choosing a convenient single number.

What public guidance supports

These are sourced research answers, not permission to enter, reserve, submit, or dispatch. Current affected-party authorization remains required.

Current corporate presence

A March 2026 SEC filing uses 22 West Washington as Morningstar's business and mailing address. This does not establish lease terms, building authority or site-access permission.

SEC filing dated March 2, 2026; reviewed August 16, 2026

Project identity

CTBUH attributes the 2008 building to an original team including Gensler, Perkins+Will, Thornton Tomasetti, Environmental Systems Design and KONE. Floor-count and area claims conflict across sources.

Public industry record reviewed August 16, 2026

Questions this record answers

Each concise answer includes the same caveats shown elsewhere on the page.

01Is 22 West Washington the Morningstar Building?+

Yes. Public sources use Morningstar Building, 22WW, Twenty Two West Washington and CBS 2 Broadcast Center for the same office-building entity.

02Who currently manages the building?+

No current operating manager was verified. Public leasing and historical ownership sources do not prove present building-management authority.

03Is this record dispatch ready?+

No. Parcel, title, current management and all material operating procedures remain unresolved.

04How can I improve this record?+

Submit an authoritative public link or dated handbook, dock guide, move rule or COI package and specify public-display, verification-only or private-retention permission. Contributions enter evidence review.
