Salesforce Seeks To Offload Large Block of Office Space in New Chicago Tower Software Firm Expected To Make Up to 125,000 Square Feet Available for Sublease in 60-Story Building By Ryan Ori CoStar News March 23, 2023 | 5:48 P.M. Quote:

^ For the floors they're not planning to occupy, correct? Just saw a post/article about them keeping their intended sq ft despite layoffs so this would contradict that

Decent-ish shot of the new plaza and the video-walls in the lobby.

Huh? If they're putting space on the sublease market, that is space they were planning to occupy (part of the lease they signed) but no longer are. They are just a tenant in this building. |

https://i.imgur.com/swKuKXe.jpg https://i.imgur.com/dJcFfWI.jpg and the obligatory shot from the bridge https://i.imgur.com/tDwkfcB.jpg I agree with all the criticism people have leveled (heaped) onto this building, but really I think it's overall a nice building. My main gripe, like others have said, is the monotony of the facade. Really all it needs is something to give some contour to the setbacks and it would be a great tower imo. Thankfully, on clear days the angle of the sun at various times does the work of bringing the shape of the building into sharper focus. Plus, I'm optimistic the flatness of the facade will be mitigated as tenants fill in and desks, blinds, and general office clutter adds texture to the windows. |
A few from yesterday:
Strangely prominent from the Wild Mile https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw...-no?authuser=0 Electrifying View? https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw...-no?authuser=0 I kind of like it from this angle... https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw...-no?authuser=0 light not doing any favors: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw...-no?authuser=0 |
The south facade needs more texture and is super flat when viewed dead on. The indirectly lit north facade is rarely viewed dead on so it actually has texture. Looks much better. Major whiff on that south facade, it’s so flat.

"The new Salesforce tower at Chicago’s Wolf Point ain’t no 30 Rock." |
This city really doesn't do well with prime sites development looking to knock it out of the park...Block 37 welcomes another to the group of missed opportunities...

Plenty of good towers in prime sites recently. |

^ I would say Trump tower is the only one of that bunch that really overachieved .... The salesforce location deserved something on that standard... even Vista which really isn't in a prime spot but the design and height are above average... the rest of towers are great but i wouldn't say there expected spots for something grand in design and height like wolf point.

1000M would like a word.

"Salesforce Tower Chicago -> Looking good and nearing completion" Arguably looks good, not great. Could've used another 100 ft or more and distinctive fins on the sides to break up the monolithic glass. But good video. |
A few shots from yesterday (4/14) - I did sky replacements to break up the monotony of the plain blue sky.

I used my tilt-shift for all these shots, but for this final one, I decided to use two horizontal frames stacked atop one another to create a wider image. Plus...the entirety of Salesforce barely fits in a single frame. https://i.imgur.com/qAWsGSy.png |

definitely this tower's (/development's) best angle, unfortunately couldn't be more of a statement to rival Sears

if anybody has any photos, im curious as to what this building looks like from the john hancock center observatory, and the sears tower observatory for that matter.
