The building takes its shape from and was situated on a triangular lot, maxmimizing views of the nearby Milwaukee River and Lake Michigan. The first floor was designed to accomodate a retail or restaurant tenant. All of the three upper floors were designed to be leased to either a single tenant or multiple tenants. The building's core functions of exit stairs, elevator, restrooms and kitchens were grouped along the near windowless west wall. The remaining northeast and south exterior walls were constructed of triple glazed curtain wall. Each floor was designed to be column free for maximum tenant flexibility. Energy efficient "green" features included operable windows, two balconies on each office floor for cross ventilation, sun shading of windows on the south wall, energy efficient lighting and water conserving plumbing fixtures. Adjacent green space was also provided. |
