Chicago’s skyline is getting a new landmark. 🌆

Rising at the meeting point of Lake Michigan and the Chicago River, 400 Lake Shore Drive will feature two cascading terraced towers reaching 841 feet into the skyline.

Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the project reimagines the iconic Chicago window with floor-to-ceiling glass, while expansive terraces create waterfall-like façades and sweeping 180-degree views across the lake, river and city.

With 634 rental units, 1,100 condo units, a new public plaza and connections to the Riverwalk and planned DuSable Park, 400 Lake Shore Drive is set to transform Chicago’s north riverfront.
