Photographer Showcases Third-Tallest Building in Chicago

A professional photographer has released photos of Chicago’s third-tallest structure, ArchDaily reports. St. Regis Chicago, formerly Wanda Vista Tower, is a multiple-story project capped by a 101-story supertall skyscraper. Despite its size, the source says it appears slender due to a flowing rhythm that defines its profile. Visioners say the tower enhances, rather than disrupts, the surrounding urban fabric. Sitting between downtown Lakeshore East Park and the Chicago Riverwalk, the lower levels allow for a connection between two attractions. The appearance is generated by the orientation of the towers’ main volumetric module, and the geometrical shape is more than just an aesthetic choice. The form serves the tower’s 393 condominiums and a five-star hotel, in addition to restaurants and various amenity spaces.
