Curved Glass Masterpiece
| Address: |
|
333 W Wacker Dr Chicago, IL 60606 |
Description
This 1983 office tower is one of the modern masterpieces of Chicago's skyline. Designed by New York architect Kohn Pederson Fox, it's an impressive example of a building designed on an irregular site: one side of the building faces the square grid streets of the Loop, the other side looks out over the curving Chicago River. Go for a stroll down Wacker Drive to see why Chicago is considered the city of architects.
