Founded in 1995, CMK Companies is a leading Chicago real estate company that has helped redefine the concept of urban living with its award-winning contemporary buildings. The firm is currently responsible for nearly $1 billion in real estate development.

Hailed by Chicago Magazine as "a company that has made a habit of developing forward-looking, contemporary-styled condominium buildings," CMK Companies has won awards from the American Institute of Architects and others. The New York Times noted that the firm's showcase project, the Contemporaine, a distinctive 15-story high rise in Chicago, "looks like no other residential building in the city." Most recently, CMK Companies has expanded its operations into new markets in the coastal areas of Florida, Michigan and the Caribbean.
