Forgive me, i dont know much about this project, but does anyone know what the plans are for that giant podium at street level? will it have retail/commercial space?
Those towers are gorgeous, but podia always make me worried
Others can correct me if I'm wrong but the plan at some point was for Whole Foods and Lifetime Fitness to take the space. Not sure what the plan is for the rest of it.
driving in from the NW (Elston to Division today), this thing is huge for the skyline. Wish there were 6 variations of this proposed throughout River North, West Loop, and South Loop
Wow! simply amazing. A skyscraper lovers paradise. One Chicago's impact on the skyline when complete will be enormous. And to hopefully add Tribune East to that scene in the future is just euphoric.
Right. If one eleven is that noticeable imagine what Waterview could've been
Losing Waterview was one of the sadder moments for the skyline during the '09 global financial meltdown. I would've been fine with dealing with the exposed concrete husk for a few more years if it meant a better and denser development.
