Try to find a photo of Marina City under construction. It looked a lot crazier than that, and was also a pioneering building to use this means of construction.
I saw a rendition that someone is going to build a 10 story condo unit on that empty lot that is North east of this tower. They are really trying to fill up the space on the river.
It's so funny how the core is now taller then many of the buildings surrounding it. I wonder what the benefits of building the core so high first is.
The way I understand it, they're building the core up while they're excavating around it; the benefit being that they're doing the two things at the same time, rather than sequentially.

A few views of the 300 N LaSalle tower going up, I will keep these pages updated. I am still working on the auto-stitch skills and consistent angles/resolutions required for good sideshows.
