Facts
The tower's footprint is angled 45° to the corner, similar to that of Lakeside Tower which was built at the same time on the Near South Side.
The building occupies the site of the old Braun Bottles plant. The white letters spelling 'Braun Bottles' on the plant's roof were a landmark for commuters crossing the river on the Brown or Purple Line el trains.
The building was planned in 2001, four years before construction started. The proposal lay dormant for a while and was revived in March 2004 as a joint venture with Fifield Realty.
On June 26, 2006 lightning struck the tower crane, slightly injuring a worker on the ground.
