The northwest corner of the building is an acute angle with a four-story rectangular opening near the top. |
A 20 story companion tower of similar design, but pointing the opposite way, was originally proposed on the adjacent lot. |
The lobby's wall extends beyond the building to frame a small plaza by the building's pointed corner. |
Before Kenzo Tange was hired to design the building, Johnson/Burgee Associates were slated as the architects. |
The land to the south is a landscaped park with fountains and terraces leading up to Wabash Avenue. |
