One Museum Park One Museum Park West Client The Enterprise Companies / Central Station Development One Museum Park 1211 S. Prairie Ave. Chicago, IL 60605 Size 289 Dwelling Units 62 Stories 360 Parking Spaces 1,000,904 GSF Uniquely positioned on the prominent southeast corner of Grant Park in downtown Chicago, the building evokes an international style but remains rooted in Chicago’s signature modernist tradition. The sleek façade, comprised of blue-and-gray low-emissivity glass with mica-fleckinfused silver painted metals, echoes the stunning setting of open sky and reflective waters. The graceful, amorphous massing allows every unit to capture primary views of both the Lakefront and Grant Park. A series of stepped, curved terraces rise up the flanks of the structure, slowly receding to reveal the building’s soaring core, which culminates with an illuminated silver elliptical peak that seamlessly conceals mechanical components. One Museum Park West 1201 S. Prairie Ave. Chicago, IL 60605 Size 292 Dwelling Units 54 Stories 372 Parking Spaces 3,500 SF Retail/Commercial 924,275 GSF The building’s slender, elegant proportions are derived from its organically shaped 10,946-squarefoot floor plate. The soft green-silver glass and gentle form provide counter balance to the kinetic expression of its western edge as it rises into a spiral-shaped steel and glass wall crown. Shaped balconies “stitch” the building together with its contrasting glass window railing system. Top Down construction was implemented through cutting edge construction methods using a combination of drop down precast columns, slurry wall design and ‘C’ cant perimeter basement wall technology for building a 5-story basement while tower construction continued above.
