20 N. Clark-Chicago:

• Our firm has seen Reiko Dyson at the helm of 20 N. Clark’s front desk for well over 12 years. Reiko knows everything ! She is the main gatekeeper for the Monday thru Friday daytime schedule. There isn’t a question she cannot answer or a procedure she does not know. She keeps us safe and happy. When we were here every day during the March 2020 COVID hit, she was here to greet us and help maintain a sense of routine. During major snowstorms, local protests, Reiko has been here. She is our beacon of light in a sometimes rocky sea of life. She encompasses all that is good at 20 N. Clark. Thank you, Reiko

• We would like to give a shout out to Rico! Our building would not run as smoothly if she was not around. Besides that she always greets you with a smile and hello. She is amazing and we really appreciate her and all she does.

Also a shout out to Bernard and Ken who wish me a good evening and I know will keep our building safe after we go home. Thank you! Jeannine
• Reiko you are awesome. From the ladies at DESMAN.

• Thanks to our Allied security team at 20 N Clark. You help make our jobs easier and we appreciate you!!

3900 Essex-Houston:

• Thank you, April, for always staying on top of things and greeting us all with a big smile and warm heart every day! Also, thanks to Mark, who is always friendly and courteous! Our building wouldn’t be the same without you two keeping us safe.
• I am always so appreciative of security staff in any building because, done right, security is a key element to first impressions for clients/visitors and staff safety. I’m a relatively new tenant to Essex and, to be transparent, spent very little time in our offices prior to COVID, so the shutdown meant even less time there for me. That said, the officers at the Essex Lane security desk (April and Mark) are unfailingly friendly, polite, willing to help solve problems and always lend their support with a smile. In a time where we had little to no human interaction, they epitomized the pinnacle of GOOD interaction by making sure people were cared for EVERY time they visited the building. Those little “chats” as we came in to do simple things meant a lot, and we appreciate your presence(s) there. Thanks to April and Mark!
• Big thank you to April and the night and weekend crew! You guys are the best!!

6330 West Loop South-Houston:

• THANK YOU FOR BEING SO AWESOME!!! AND FOR ALWAYS SMILING!

• Thanks to all of the guards here at Ashford 6-Houston. Special thanks to Ms. Angela, always helpful and friendly.

• We can’t say enough great things about the team at Encore Commons. They always greet us with a smile (even if it’s behind a mask) and make us feel welcome and happy to be here. They’re always friendly and ready to help out when needed. We appreciate our team and hope they feel as special as we know they are! Thank you, Ed & John!!!
