Such a natural fit. Mr. Vinoly, the southwall is forever in your debt.

It is.

And - man did the southwall, and Chicago, ever dodge a bullet when P/H was taken out of the equation for the Indiana-Michigan parcel?! Remember those tacky, gimmicky towers they drew up for the previous owner? At least Musuem Park 3 was an actual design (where NEMA now stands), and 4 if I recall may have been just a placeholder/massing concept......but 3 was trash.
