I'm absolutely LOVING those staircases.

I swear, Vegas may be an adults' playground, but Chicago is the adults' jungle-gym.

Question about the stairs leading out of the park up to street level:

1) are they part of Aqua or the townhomes?
2) will they be completed/opened before Aqua?

It is such a pain getting in/out of that park right now!

I would like to know what some of you Chicagoans who criticized the white paint were smoking at the time. Have any of you changed your opinions since more of the tower has come together? I think it looks spectacular!
