Chicago’s Skyscrapers

Over at The Chicago Traveler, there’s buzz about the latest addition to the Chicago skyline. The building has been named Aqua and construction began in March of 2007 with a projected ending date of 2009.
Aqua will be the first building to house condominiums, hotel space, and apartments all within the same walls. However, the balconies which resemble rippling waves are the star of the building. The seemingly wave-like surface earns the building the name “Aqua” and provides for an extremely complicated construction process.
We’re all excited to see how this breathtaking building will turn out amidst the grand Chicago skyline.
