There are a lot of glass boxes going up in Chicago, but not nearly as many as complaints about the scourge of glass buildings. There are just as many or more buildings with brick or metal facades, some of it quite nice, going up.
As someone who lived near Atrium village for a bit, to me, it really is an awesome project. Just the way it has taken low rises and parking lots into 3 decent new buildings and restoring the 1 is really a nice boost for the area along with tower of Jewel...all right next to transportation..very good development indeed.
