He was once described as “The Man who changed the face of Chicago.” Over a long and storied career which spanned six decades, Arthur Rubloff was a catalyst for countless commercial and residential real estate developments which changed the face of the Chicago landscape.

His legacy of positive change is evidenced by the Carl Sandburg Village, the Evergreen Shopping Plaza and the Brunswick Building, the world headquarters to Arthur Anderson & Company and the Brunswick Corporation.

In the late 1940’s, his Magnificent Mile development transformed the North Michigan retail community into the Midwest’s most thriving and glittering shopping center.

Arthur’s accomplishments extend far beyond Chicago. Over the years he built a $1 billion portfolio of projects that spanned the country. This diverse portfolio of properties included super regional malls in San Francisco, condominium developments in New York and Miami, as well as office buildings and retail developments in most of the country’s major metropolitan centers.

Arthur died May 24, 1986, leaving behind a company with a rich tradition and successful real estate developments throughout the country.
