This project consists of a 39-story condominium tower resting on a 4-story base fo retail space and parking. The site is located west of downtown Chicago, between two north-south arteries of very different character. To the cast of the site is an 8-lanc expressway which demarcates the current boundary of the high-rises west of the loop.To the west is a section of Halsted Street known as "Greektown," which consists of 3-to- 4-story retail and restaurant entertainment builidings.
The design is a base-and-tower scheme which reinforces these two urban conditions. A 39-story linear housing slab parallels the expressway on the eastern portion of the site, to maximize views of the Chicago skyline from the residential units. The mass of the tower is an urban marker defining the canyon created by the depressed expressway and marking the western edge of the downtown.The 4-story base is a transitional element, consistent with the scale of buildings along Halsted Street.
The building‘s design challenges the typical residential lower model, in order to accommodate flexibility and variety of unit options, and to humanize the scale of the tower. The manipulation of mass and void, opacity, and transparency creates a random, ad hoc village-like quality, as opposed to the monolithic vertical slab of most current high-rise residential design. A large transparent opening, spanned by glass bridges, froms an over-scaled urban window, and also suggests an alternate reading of the building as two interconnected towers rather than a single, large mass.
Planning of the typical floor provides options, variety, and flexibility to propective buyers. Each floor has six different layouts for both one and two-bedroom units, and unit sizes are alternated in plan to maximize posshle combinations. A variety of exterior extensions—projections, recesses or terraces—can be glazed in without compromising the integrity of the building‘s design. This is possible because oflhe built-in. random quality of the exterior.
