How many parking spaces are there in LSE?

Agreed. These were/are real eyesores when passing on Lakeshore.

Post Tension


Lots of post tension


Even more post tension




Embeds in the core

Amen! These two buildings are an embarrassment!

lol i was going to add them all up instead of hitting with some snarky comment like "enough".. but too much work. here's a map of the garages that are partnered with spothero. some are missing. add vista, cirrus, and cascade.

in my fantasy LSE the cta has an electric shuttle to state/lake & clark/lake utilizing lower randolph.. turn that gated lot behind the east elevator into an awesome bus hub serving entire lakeshore east. lines 4, 6, 20, 60, etc. send some of the packed express busses straight east into the bus only lanes of lakeshore drive... ok sorry getting carried away with my transit fantasy.

theres enough parking.

Such a cool project to watch. A couple questions. Is the far south of this going to be an alley for loading docks and what not? Not sure why they arent meeting the wall. Also is the pool deck really going to be level with lsd? I thought I saw that in a picture. I think it would be cool but im not paying the big bucks to live there.

The far south "alley" is an at-grade walkway from LSE park to the lakefront (it crosses beneath LSD). The pool deck is probably about 20 feet above LSD but still close enough that I'd be uncomfortable hanging out there.

God damn! That shot plus 1000M and grant park 4. Vista almost looks fake in that shot.

yeah, wow

That is an excellent shot 8)

Grant park 4?

Also if Parcel I were built, that would also appear in the shot I believe

I believe next to NEMA.

Also throw 1000M in there ;)

Oh the second phase of NEMA?

The latest renderings show that those walls will remain uncovered, as the stairs will drop down there.
Once this is all done, they need to paint a mural, or something. Anything.

Redo the bird mural 1000M is covering up.. i kinda liked that one

That's currently an alley (Harbor Service Dr), which links the Park at LE with some of the parking garages I believe.
