Designed by award-winning architect and Chicago native Jeanne Gang, upon completion Vista Tower will be city’s third largest building. In Chicago - where the skyscraper was born - Vista Tower promises to re-shape the skyline and the view on what a super tall building can be. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, the Magellan Development Group and Beijing-based Wanda Group have announced the 95-story Vista Tower is set to break ground this summer. “So every floor has 8 corners,” Linnane said. Plus, Gang figured out a way to double the number of coveted corner views. Buildings whose construction is on-hold are also included. The floor footprints shift, making the building undulate with six shades of blue - rising 1,191 feet. The Chicago developer building the 101-story Vista Tower on the Chicago River has agreed to buy out its majority Chinese partner for US270 million, ending. This lists buildings that are under construction in Chicago and are planned to rise at least 300 feet (91 m).
Once again, with Vista, Gang clearly did not want a boring box. Gang also designed the nearby Aqua Tower, with its waving balconies. “You’re going to see a lot of people taking pictures of this building,” Linnane said.

In all, there will be about 400 condominiums, plus a luxury hotel in the billion-dollar project. There is also a terrace, bigger than many people's homes that may just have the highest outdoor pool ever when it is done. The highest priced unit we have is about $18 and a half million dollars,” Linnane said. Vista Tower last week reached a key milestone on its way to becoming Chicago's third-tallest skyscraper, when concrete was poured to form the 50th floor. “So the units up here are in the $10 million dollar-ish range. Jeanne Gang, from Studio Gang, designed the rippling skyscraper that is rising in Lake Shore East. The unique design comes from the Chicago architect who has vaulted to global "star-chitect" status. When Vista Tower opens in 2020, the 101-story building will be the third tallest in Chicago and the world's tallest from a female architect. The blow-through floor is a first for Chicago, and Linnane says it is just one of the ways they are able to construct a super-tall building in a rather windy city.
