In Starship Chicago II we have an entire segment dedicated to the atrium floor and an interview with Ben Capp of Wolverine stone who tells the story of how it came to be, if anyone is interested.

Thanks for the update Solar! This has to be one of my most anticipated projects in the city currently. The transformation of the Loop that the redevelopment of the Thompson Center could potentially trigger are absolutely enormous. It will be exciting to watch it all unfold.

From your lips to gods ears. I'm just thinking back to the days before Google redeveloped the cold storage building. I know there was also the added catalyst of a new L stop, but look what happened to the neighborhood after that outdated building got some of that sweet, sweet G cash infused into it. I don't want to be greedy here, but what's the plan for the Clark and Lake stop? I know the external part of the station over Lake Street probably isn't being touched, but there were interior aspects IIRC. Not my stop, but from what I could tell going past, that sorely needed a refresh as well.

Congratulations on saving the Thompson Center, I’m sure this will turn out to be a great project.

It's unclear what the CTA areas will look like, but they will be retained. That was a condition of the sale.

I've also heard that Google is interested in maintaining the underground connection to City Hall and the rest of the Pedway system, which is good news.
