Not sure what the hurry is to archive it. This building deserves the latitude of more time especially seeing that the "Cube" build-out isn't complete. I, for one, am excited to see how it turns out as it is a major part of this iconic building.
"There is one extraordinary interior space: the hotel’s restaurant, which flaunts 38-foot ceilings and massive, dramatically canted concrete columns that are pulled back from the facade to maintain riverfront views. This is a bravura display of old-fashioned Chicago muscle. Metal window frames subdivide the cube’s exterior into truncated pyramids, further breaking down the tower’s scale." - Kamin
