Emergency Preparedness

PNC Centre’s security staff is on duty 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays.  In addition to controlling after-hours access to the building, the security staff uses remote cameras and direct inspection methods to monitor the lobbies, freight elevators, and loading dock. The security team is in constant radio contact and is trained in emergency responses.

PNC Centre was designed to minimize the chance of a life threatening emergency and to reduce damage in the event an emergency does occur.  The tenant areas of the building are fully sprinkled and comply with all City of Chicago high-rise safety ordinances.  The emergency systems that protect the building are constantly monitored by building security personnel, in addition to around the clock monitoring by an off-site company. Please refer to the Emergency & Security Procedures Handbook for additional information regarding the building life safety systems and emergency procedures. 

 If a problem arises afterhours, please call Building Security at 312-629-1700.  The Office of the Building main phone number (312-629-1700) is also answered by security outside of regular business hours.
