At least before, their floorplans was working for me and showed prices. Can't check at the moment though...

Maybe the site's broken, but on the page headed:

Explore available units, compare floor plans, and make an appointment to view NEMA Chicago.

There's a dropdown to choose unit size, and all that does is populate that entry on the "send me information" form.

There are bunch of other dropdowns for size, features, etc. But none of those do anything.

This appears to have floorplans and photos of the units.

^ Hands down this building's best angle, it makes it soar. Great shot.

It's a good angle, but most here(me included) find the best perspective to be from the South(McCormick Center and nearby)

Haven't shot NEMA much, but finally took a trip over on Saturday afternoon. Glad I finally did. Really impressive up close from the SE corner.

the building looks so much better without a crane (you will rarely read those words posted from this account, i'm a true construction fan).

but damn, its all coming together. i was admiring it in the snow today, it is such a chicago building. thanks for that pic, chris. im assuming you touched it up because those colors really pop, looks great

That last photo there, Nick... wow you managed to make the Museum Park towers quite majestic if I say so myself!

Thanks Truthfully, I was really surprised how cool the backside view of these three towers is. For a moment I felt like I was seeing new architecture in a different city. I think a lot of cool photos will be had once this tower is fully complete.

I agree. This doesn't read Chicago for so many reasons. But I love the diversity.

Really? To me it's a younger relative to the Sears Tower.

No, I meant the last of Nick's 3 photos just doesn't look like Chicago to me in any way. Dubai or Miami perhaps.

I agree. I feel like the similarity/homage to Sears Tower is unmistakable.

I definitely see the resemblance, but from this angle, OMP, and it's neighbor look like completely different buildings. Throw in NEMA (which is relatively new) and to me it looks 'foreign' in a sense.

Long story short, I haven't taken any photos of the backside of these developments, let alone from so close, so it's just a completely fresh look to me.
