The audit, tax and advisory firm will occupy 12,000 square feet on the building’s 10th floor when it opens in March 2016 – about half of the 26,000-square-foot floor plate.

The new space will be slightly smaller than the firm’s current 15,000-square-foot space at the U.S. Bank building. KPMG operates in 155 countries and has more than 162,000 people working in firms around the world. The firm’s Milwaukee office employs about 100 people.

Joseph Rock, managing partner KPMG’s Milwaukee office, said he expects the lease will be signed this week.

“We’re excited about the new building,” Rock said.

Construction of the $101.5 million building is expected to be complete in March of 2016. More than 65 percent of 833 East is now committed.

Milwaukee law firm Godfrey & Kahn will be the anchor tenant in the building and is leasing 77,817 square feet of space.
