BVictor1 · #**664** Posted **Apr 13, 2015, 10:51 PM**

1,100' from upper Wacker and there will be a pedestrian entrance at ground level.

Hotel, or Condos?

Love the texture looks like gang resolved the awkward angle on the east side that we discussed here. The facade seems to be similar to that of 10 Hudson Yards

Yeah but this a Wanda Vista hotel.

Yes I bet the condos will be about the same price as the trump.

1200', not 1100' or 1148'. New 3rd in Chicago.

I'm absolutely loving the new facade treatment.

Second highest roof height

From the early returns that I can make I'm LOVING the revisions. It looks much more "Gang" to me then the prior version.

I'm liking the close-up detail pictures but the renders from distance still aren't checking all my boxes. I think the massing just seems strange still. Perhaps better quality renders will check that final box for me.

From Studio Gang website

Randomguy34 · #**677** Posted **Apr 14, 2015, 12:09 AM**

Now if only they added a 577 foot spire on top of the building

What are you, some mindless, undecided Chicago voter?

Make Mine Marvel! Err, Studio Gang!

Looks like the angles of the "frustums" have been VE'd almost completely out of existence (along with the balconies, which I never much cared for). Or maybe the angles are less apparent with the vertical elements removed?
Less dramatic but perhaps more elegant overall. I don't hate it.
