340 On The Park Design Praised
Posted July 23rd, 2007 at 11:34 AM by Eric Frost
A article this morning in the Tribune has some nice words about "340 On The Park", the latest building finished in the Lakeshore East development project. 340 On the Park makes a bold contribution to the Chicago skyline rising 64 stories dwarfing its neighbors at 300 and 360 East Randolph.
From the Tribune - "The doors give onto a wide balcony with a knock-your-eyes-out view of Frank Gehry's snaking BP Bridge, the trellis of his Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park, Sears Tower, the skyline, you name it. On the same floor are a two-lane, 25-yard lap pool and a whirlpool with views out onto Grant Park. The tower's residents -- people in just a handful of units had moved in as of last Monday -- will thus be able to indulge themselves and feel virtuous because they live in a green building. This may make 340 the Lexus hybrid of architecture."
