Located at a bend in the Chicago River, this prominent Post-Modern, 36-story edifice echoes the curving form of its natural neighbor. Designed in 1983 by the architectural firm of Kohn Pedersen Fox, the office tower is sheathed with reflective, green-tinted glass that changes shade depending on the sun and water. Broad horizontal bands of brushed stainless steel run every 6 ft. Green marble and gray granite form the base of this elegant, wedge-shaped building, materials used again in the two-story lobby.
In 2007, 333 West Wacker Drive was ranked #62 on the AIA 150 America's Favorite Architecture list.
