The old post office is what will glut the market next year and probably shut off the pipeline of anything else getting off the ground the next few years or so. |

If I remember correctly United had their signage up for a year after they moved from wacker to sears.
|
The signage/naming rights could have been bought by CNA, or given to them as a incentive to move into or remain in the building at some point when they were tenants. If it was the former, then the naming rights would continue until the contract is up, since the rights are bought and paid for. If its the latter, then the building owners can take down the signage and have it replaced at any time once CNA moves out.

I thought I saw a rendering with the Northern Trust logo up on top...can't seem to find it anymore.

Way too much going on at the lobby haha. Those architects need to learn to edit!

^ I think he means that it doesn't look cohesive, and I am in agreement with that. Looks like its trying to do a lot at once.
The lobby would have been the one sole interesting facet of this otherwise banal, architectural afterthought of a tower, and they managed screwed it up. Wonderful. At least it will earn the city a good amount of property tax revenue compared to the Walgreens that used to occupy the site... |

The design spirit here is in such contrast to CNA’s existing home. The bright red boxy building is bold, simple and straightforward and memorable.
The new building tries to hide itself up-top and the lobby just doesn’t know what it wants to be with a mish-mash of generic design trends. The most interesting thing about this entire project was that crane hung off the side of the building. The precariousness of that feature should have made its way into the structural offset at the corner. |
