Dead Horse Communications Announces Sale of Headquarters, "Last Shindig in the Old Digs"
CHICAGO (August 3, 2004) -- Dead Horse Communications announced today that it has sold its headquarters in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago, and has begun plans to move to its new location in West Edgewater. The sale (and purchase) will be completed August 25.
"We're very excited by this news," said Andrew Huff, principal of Dead Horse Communications. "The sale of our condo puts us right on schedule to move into the new two-flat without having to worry where the down payment money is coming from."
The one-bedroom luxury condominium was sold for an undisclosed amount to a private citizen. The new owner will take possession on August 27, when Dead Horse moves to its new offices at 6224 N. Bell.
To celebrate the sale and for "one last hurrah" in this location, Dead Horse is throwing a party this Saturday, August 7, at 8 p.m. Beverages and light snacks will be provided, but attendees are encouraged to bring additional drinks -- and to eat beforehand.
"We've already begun the process of packing, so we're not thrilled by the idea of making dinner in the midst of a party, wondering where we put the such and such," Huff said. "This is more of an opportunity to enjoy our great deck one last time, and see all our friends before we have to clear our schedules and get down to serious packing."
Dead Horse Communications offers media, public relations and copywriting services for a wide range of industries. The company is headquartered in Chicago, with satellite offices on Ursa Minor Beta. Its better-known projects include Gapers Block, a Chicago-centric news and events webzine.
