This project stretches the program, with the addition of a significant quantity of leasable office space, to create the tallest design solution of the group. Public space is interspersed throughout various levels of the tower, with the skyscraper museum on the upper most floors, and a public sky-garden at the tower’s pinnacle. This scheme integrates itself on the ground plane by tying into the existing retail of the adjacent building and the nearby underground Metra station. Much focus was put on the unique structural system, creating a woven steal shell from which the floor plates are hung within.
