Sorry to break it to you... we just finished working on designs for the top of the parking garage next to McClurg... lol. it will still be a parking garage... at least from above it will look good.

No problem! Glad to have found such an active forum with many members getting out and taking pictures of all the projects. That's rare. I look forward to contributing throughout the next years. Chi will be home for awhile! Cheers!

I believe that response has to do with Yo not allowing their photos to be used on the forum. They aren't really down with open content principles. They overvalue their content and undervalue / really obviously don't understand search engine optimization.

no. please do not post any images from yochicago on this forum.

doing so will compromise your status as a member of this forum.

Meh. Just don't go to the site. The site is poorly designed and their construction shots are rare anyway. Plus we are lucky to have enough active photographers on the forum that we don't miss much.

ChiGuy312 · #71 Posted **Apr 28, 2015, 11:00 PM**

A couple photos of the progress on 545.

rlw777 · #72 Posted **Apr 29, 2015, 2:42 PM**

^ Nice shots thanks for the update. That's gonna be a killer vantage point for a quite a while with 451 E. grand starting later this year.

sentinel · #73 Posted **Apr 29, 2015, 3:12 PM**

Wow, thanks Chiguy312 - spectacular perch you have there!

^Nice shots. I've been jonesing for some updates on this project.

Zapatan · #76 Posted **Apr 29, 2015, 5:53 PM**

Nice! This'll definitely be a nice addition to the area.

451 Grand will rise pretty close to here correct? They'll complement each other well.

ChiGuy312 · #77 Posted **Apr 29, 2015, 10:56 PM**

Thanks! Yea 451 Grand will rise right in front of 500 LSD. They're supposed to redo the park too which would be nice. It's a little dumpy for the area at the moment. 545 will definitely be a nice addition to Streeterville.

doea anyone know why there are two different designs for the north side of the tower? Which is newer? Did they go back to public housing?

^ Why is the northern portion of that site sitting undeveloped?
