so that's three U/C on the right there

Yeah and three very good towers too. It's gonna be the best summer for skyscrapers here since 2007.
thanks for the pics @teohwp85 |

One Grant Park, Essex on the Park, the Homewood Suites, and Paragon (you can sort of almost barely see it in the shot) |
yes, sorry, I meant on the right side of the photo

I was browsing the OGP page on Rafael Vinoly's website and found an interior rendering I hadn't seen previously. Appears to be of the amenity space looking out onto the outdoor deck.

And a lot of people who look much too young to be making the kind of coin needed to live here. Maybe they're attending a birthday party for some trust-fund baby.

Does Brutal = Brutalism ?     |
^ Nice shots especially the last :cheers:
|
Already turning out to have a thinner appearance than I was expecting at first. Which is a good thing.

Looks like a Web 2.0-era corporate common area to me. Not a comfortable, relaxing space for a high-end residential property.

The view of both Parks (One Grant and Essex on the) from a little farther north:

n.b. the near shelf has comic books - definitely a place for the kids - perhaps there is a more refined and posh spot for the adults. |

Fake news, that's a few floors from the top ;)
|
It appears that OGP has reached the next setback on the SE wing. 9 more floors until the tower becomes a square.

... but you're right, this was from the 60th-floor amenity room. I believe there were ten more floors above me. |

Yeah, including mechanical the building has 73 floors, so pretty much. She's a big gal |
kind of bland for this town... but it could be worse.

When do you think we'll start seeing some glass samples?
|
^ Supposedly the glass is delayed by the manufacturer. Not sure exactly when they will start seeing it being delivered. I think someone in this thread mentioned later on in April potentially?
|
^ Yes, the glass is supposed to be coming in April and the glass contractor is going to start 2 crews (one on a lower floor and one part way up).
And it sounds like the Vista team has still not been able to pass the performance mockup which is why there are only slab edge covers installed and no glass panels. |
How far is the manufacturer from chicago.? With the size of wanda and this I would think it would be economically more convenient to use an in-city company. Either way cant wait for this one to start getting wrapped with glass.
|
Oldcastle in Wausau, Wisconsin is fabricating OGP. Efco is fabricating Vista. I'm not sure where the Efco fabrication plant is.
|
What's that, 14 15 stories of a parking podium?

Great set! Timeline guess when this will pass the roof of OMPW? Mid June-ish?
|
3 floors added between 3/7 to 3/23, that works out to around a floor every 5 days. Impressive!
At this rate, top out should be sometime near the end of this year. Quote:

There should be some fun Lollapalooza shots with OGP and Essex going up
|
^ One of my favorite perks of attending :)

And remember, with each setback, the pace will pick up because of smaller floorplates. |

I think it's extremely rare to have less than a five-day-per-floor cycle.
