The structural engineer was Seattle, Washington based Magnusson Klemencic Associates. The class A, 150 North Riverside Chicago office tower on an extremely challenging site adjacent to the Chicago River and active Amtrak rail lines.

In response to the multiple site challenges, the building features an innovative, tapered superstructure design to create a footprint equal to just 25% of the tower’s floor area. Reducing the sway in a tall building, the project architects placed very heavy objects to accommodate the building accelerations, managed with 12 liquid mass dampers (giant tanks hidden in the upper floors of the building which holds 160,000 gallons of water. These special tanks of liquid help to dramatically dampen and reduce the building’s sway.) The project includes a number of design innovations and engineering “firsts,” including the development of a thin concrete central building core structural system “spine” that hold the elevator core and transfer the load from the upper floors into the foundation – which was drilled 110 feet below grade level into 5′ deep of Chicago’s bedrock to provide a stable foundation. The building uses the largest rolled steel sections in the world, design of a high-capacity primary foundation system using half as many support pilings, and many more amazing engineering feats.
