Why not digital?

They stay booked with traveling nurses, traveling business people, digital nomads, etc.

-- Get a basic website -- pay someone on E-Lance or Fiverr if you are pinching pennies or just set aside $5k or so and have someone design a nice website for the building pitching the ammenities, contact info for leasing, directory of tenants, links to your facebook page etc - brag on the investment you made in the building-- Get a professional photographer to get photos of the building/common areas and a few offices--- Fly out to Chicago - spend a couple weeks or whatever it takes- get appointments with all of the top brokers in the Commercial office space niche, break bread with them, buy them lunch, coffee, sell this building and your commitment to it, the upgrades you did etc-- Reach out to the business journal - local papers business writers - ask for a sit down to talk about your rehab -- once articles are written - link to them on website, facebook etc-- Keep manning the phones with the brokers, keep your digital content flowing - add something at least once a week to the Facebook page-- Sign new leases, increase bottom line-- fill up building, enjoy cash flow or exit and sell, move on to the next one

Tell the city you will dig it up and cap it, they might care then.

My full time career is in digital marketing and have some web design skills but API setup and advanced web design I want to avoid.  

Here is a very simple example of how this would show up in Google Search: -Ben (Digital marketer & soon-to-be rental property owner)

To me they are stores of value or currencies.

You can get an ACH authorization whereby you "take" from them rather than having them "give" to you, or require that they send you a check (which you digitally deposit), or let a property manager handle the rent for you.
