Nice that it's gonna create a bit of a new peak in it's local group from this angle. BMO also adding some new geometry here too.

^that is totally awesome that the Morton Salt sign is getting repainted already!

That should do it for the core. They're lowering some of the formwork.

Saweet. The topping off articles should start flowing now. But you get it here on SSP first!

Am I tripping or is this building progressing slowly? Feels like its been in the same spot since late october/november?

There was a slight pause in the core for a little over a month while the steel caught up some. But progress has been super steady since then.

View from Diversey harbor. Nice little surprise, I wasn't really expecting to be able to see it pop up in the skyline from here.

^ not One Chicago's most flattering angle though.

I disagree, i believe someone called it the Twin Tower angle in an earlier post and i kinda dig it man!

I totally dig it. Trump and One Chicago complement each other phenomenally from the North and the towers along Lincoln Park add a nice sense of depth.

Chicago Yimby posted the the core topped out at 840 feet and it's now confirmed that the tower has increased to a full height of 850 feet

Dare I say this news is.... banana worthy?

Here is the link for the Google impaired

850 for the architectural top from the riverwalk it sounds like and 828 from the city datum.

Turns out @Briguy was right on the mark with the tip.

A great addition to the city which broke ground during the pandemic no less. From one :banana: to another :banana: https://skyscraperpage.com/forum/sho...postcount=1370

Tallest new Chicago office building in over 30 years.
