Equity Office owns
and operates a national portfolio of premier office buildings in
major metropolitan markets across the country. The company is owned
by an affiliate of The Blackstone Group, a preeminent global private
equity firm.
Equity Office was acquired in 2007, bringing Equity Office’s
portfolio together with other Blackstone office asset holdings,
primarily from its acquisitions of CarrAmerica Properties and Trizec
Properties. Integrating these predominantly Class A properties under
one name – Equity Office – provides Blackstone with an unparalleled
real estate platform for future office investments.
Our goal is to leverage our national platform to facilitate the
seamless acquisition and transition of properties into and out of
the portfolio, in support of Blackstone’s real estate investments
philosophy. We actively manage our assets to ensure not only the
best possible customer experience, but also gainful returns for
Blackstone’s investors.
Equity Office is headquartered in Chicago, IL, and has approximately
700 employees nationwide.
