This should be good to go I'd imagine. I'm impressed with how fast Lend Lease is growing their Chicago clout. Did they mention a construction start date?

Looks like project that would be offered in a midsized city or large burg.
The locals would trumpet it as good development because anything is better than nothing. And they have absolutely no reference to good architecture.
^well, I'll be the first to say that the DeStefano project looks like a huge pile of blue glass crap with a mansard roof on top...
Yeah what the hell is that? I'm always in support of South Loop filler but that roof has to go. It looks like the love child of 500N. LSD and 41 east 8th
It looks like something you'd expect to see as filler in China, not in Chicago. Not a big fan, but not the end of the world.
LOL had to laugh at this one. The first time my girlfriend, who's originally from China, came to Chicago we were at Maxwell Street Market and walked across Roosevelt to the South Loop. As we came upon places like Roosevelt Collection, she asked me if all the architects who designed the buildings were from China. She told me that area looked just like where her parents live on the outskirts of Shanghai and was genuinely surprised when I told her the architects were not Chinese.
^ Can't wait to see both sides being developed at the same time!

Thanks to everyone for the pics. Question: how is this highrise boom comparing to the previous decade's boom, at lease in terms of sheer # of highrises u/c?

Lol, this is so meta, it's literally a programatic and aesthetic clone of 633 N St. Claire, just 25 years later. This is probably the first true PoMo design we've had since the 1990's.
