dan, lake point tower over 860-880? :sly:

Haha, Fordham Spire, that was a really long time ago...

Nope, even though Lake Point Tower is 70 floors, it is only 645 feet tall. It is easily the shortest 70 floor building in the world...

What? That isn't a response to his question...

[BVictor1]

I think he means 860 & 880 Lake Shore Drive.

Does anyone know what the railings on the balconies will be made of? Could be quite expensive to custom make railings to fit the differing curves of each balcony. Also, a more "invisible" railing would improve aesthetics.

i think they'll be poured in place bronze.


i actually think the visibility of the railing will work well with the look of the building... think, MARINA CITY...

[Dr. Taco]

i think they'll be poured in place bronze.

haha, i bet thats not very expensive at all
but can you imagine how cool it would be to see that construction process?

Does anyone know what the railings on the balconies will be made of? Could be quite expensive to custom make railings to fit the differing curves of each balcony. Also, a more "invisible" railing would improve aesthetics.

An excerpt from a McHugh press release distributed 11/06:

"In many ways, Aqua will be the Marina City of our generation with the way we're taking a totally new direction in using concrete for the exterior," said Dave Alexander, McHugh senior vice president.

There is no repetition whatsoever in the ripples that make up the balconies, which range from zero to 12 feet deep, said Alexander, and McHugh must custom-build all the forms that will cantilever past the edge of the building, with the shapes of the edges custom built. Topping the balconies will be 33,000 linear feet of balcony railing, each one custom measured since no two will be alike."

[asheesh88]

Is that a white protective film on a few of the windows? Some of the windows look whiter.....Just was wondering. Also, will the concrete columns be visible through the windows, or will they be finished somehow?

Thanks,

yeah, solar. wow, you hi-lighted how good this thing is gonna look with glass, and there's only one partial row! that green with black outlines and white waving balconies :slob:

[honte]

The glass looks fabulous to me.

OK, let me rephrase that: I think the glass looks fine. The overall composition is starting to look fabulous, and the dark glazing was a great move.

[Nowhereman1280]

THE GLASS LOOKS SO GOOD!

Man, this is so good looking I almost actually want to see it painted white! I think that this could be a rare case of the paint making the building look better!

[Dr. Taco]

^ and lucky for you, it will be painted white! as evidenced by BVic's earlier posts. I want it painted white, too. I'm not an absolute stickler for plain concrete. but painting concrete shit-tan is a travesty. white? that's different

[Down_Under_the_El]

Wow! This is shaping up nicely.. I think it might be more interesting to not paint the concrete, but I don't particularly care either way.

[aaron38]

We're going to get a lot of different colors out of the glass depending on sun angles and where you're standing.
If you're close and the balconies shield the glass from the sky, it's green. If it can reflect the sky it's blue. And of course with the waves, the glass will transition green-blue-green-blue.

It's going to be very interesting to look at.

[aaron38]

http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/2184/dsc0190zz7.jpg

I like those green colored panels in front of the columns. I'm assuming that the thin ones not in front of columns are where interior walls will be.

I wish the balcony railings were glass, it would make for an interesting contrast is depth perception at each level. Concrete underside, glass balcony rail, green windows, concrete underside, fantastic...

Village Market Center:

I received this today from Magellan:


Dear Lakeshore East Residents:

As the Lakeshore East Community Relations Director I'd like to provide a Village Market update. The Village Market, which will offer a host of retail amenities, will be situated on the southwestern edge of the community just north of 340 on The Park. There has been a lot of anticipation by the residents as well as Magellan Development for the official ground breaking. The recent delays are due to some architectural changes that we feel will benefit the Village Market and our community. Once the new plans are approved by the City Council and Planning Department we expect an immediate ground breaking. We are very confident of a spring 2008 ground breaking with an expected 12 month build out.

We are delighted that a Treasure Island Grocery Store and a well known ice cream chain are confirmed retailers and are excited to report that a nationally respected day care center is also very interested in the space. The Village Market will span over 100,000 square feet and will be a place for residents and neighbors to shop, dine, relax and socialize. An underground parking garage and potential for drive up services are also in the plans.

The spectacular Lakeshore East scale model including the addition of the Village Market has been moved to the new Sales and Design Gallery located in the retail space of The Regatta at 430 E. Waterside Drive. I encourage you to stop in, meet with me and take a look at the design and lay out of the Village Market.

[Nowhereman1280]

^^^ Well what are you waiting for! Go down there and get us some pictures of this new design of the Village Market!

[EarlyBuyer]

^^^ Well what are you waiting for! Go down there and get us some pictures of this new design of the Village Market!

Cameras are no longer allowed in the LSE Sales Center...

[APPRAISER]

How about a camera phone;)

[EarlyBuyer]

I stopped by the Sales Center this afternoon, no pictures though.

The updated site model looks really good, and as my previous posting stated, the model for the final version of the Village Market Center has now been added. The real estate ringing the park is now largely filled in on the site model as it now has the aforementioned Market Center, as well as the Parkhomes that will be South and West of the Lancaster. The Tides and Aqua models are of course in place as well. The total project really looks good.

As mentioned, I did not take any photos. You can see a few shots of portions of the old site model from the Wacker Drive Center, on the Columbian Model and Exhibit Works website, click on the "site models" link. http://www.cmew.biz/Models_files/frame.htm

A partial floorplan of the Parkhomes is presently under construction and from the looks of it, will be completed within 30 days-a new reason to stop back.

The new Sales Center looks great and if you're in the area, it's worth stopping by. The standard level finishes and appliances for Aqua are quite impressive and to my knowledge would have been considered upgrades at some other LSE buildings. Additionally, the choices available for upgrading further are more extensive than I've seen in any other LSE building.

[pip]

so here is my question. Are these going to be all balconies that wrap around since it looks like they jut out all around?

There's no drive-thru on the Village Market Center, is there? :yuck:

I like the mention of an ice cream chain... I'm guessing Cold Stone, since the closest ones are up on Ontario in River North and down on Halsted in University Village. It could also be Oberweis, which only has one Chicago location in Wicker Park (I really hope the Wicker Parkers go to Margie's, which is cheaper and infinitely better).

[EarlyBuyer]

:previous:

I didn't see any drive-thru facilities on the Village Market Center model. The Shoreham has a drive-thru located in the first floor of the parking garage for it's in-house Fifth Third Bank. This location makes it quite low profile.

I'm with you ardecila on the speculation of Cold Stone. I remember reading somewhere last Summer that Cold Stone was looking for a franchisee for a new LSE store.

[aaron38]

I'm betting the drive-thru, if there is one, would be accessed from lower Randolpf.

[Nowhereman1280]

Nice, when is the Thompson Center open anyhow? It seems that every time I am down there it is locked up and closed. I've actually found that quite annoying since I've been itching to get inside and experience that building completely which I haven't done before...

Are the balconies wrap around the whole condo? I am asking because the curvey cement sticks out all around each floor.

We've seriously got an incredible cadre of photographers on our team. These updates are absolutely amazing. Harry, you in particular have turned photo updates into a quasi-documentary on the day-to-day happenings in highrise construction sites

[EarlyBuyer]

Are the balconies wrap around the whole condo? I am asking because the curvey cement sticks out all around each floor.

pip: many of the corner units (but not all) will have wrap around balconies. With each floor plate being different, some of the balconies cut back into the building before making the turn, so wrap around in those few cases is not possible. There is at least one unit (that I'm aware of) remaining with a wrap around corner:

Hey guys, I don't mean to be a bother, but I ask a lot of questions, and I know that most of you know or have a lot of experience in the high rise construction business.

That's not a parking deck, that's the roof of the large ballroom they are putting in the base. They look crooked because they are angled to maximize drainage, just like how most roofs are angled to make water run off...

[EarlyBuyer]

What's the scale of that plan? Is the part that wraps around the corner even wide enough for an average sized person to walk through?

10023: most of the wrap around corners are definitely deep enough (3' to 8')to accomodate comfortable use. A few of them however narrow too far and will be decorative vs. useable (that's the cutting back into the building part I'd mentioned).

Since the balconies are going to be all different sizes, I wonder if that makes any difference to the price of the units. All other things being equal, I sure as hell wouldn't want to pay the same as someone who has twice the balcony I have.

Aqua is prgressing really fast. And from a lot of angles, the facade already has it's final appearance. In that last photo of Wrabbit's, on the north face, you wouldn't even see any of the glass if it was there. So except for the paint, that's the final look of the building.

Also, I was kinda on the fence regarding the black window frames, but they're growing on me.

Phil: Good question. When comparing identical (same floor plan) units, two factors affect their price points: floor numbering and balcony size.

[pip]

^do you have any idea what the size range of the balconies are.

To me this is one of my favorite aspects of the building. Just about wrap around all balcony condos.

[EarlyBuyer]

:previous:

pip: some of the balconies are in the neighborhood of 50+ feet long (those that wrap around). For the units without a wrap around balcony, a 25 foot to 35 foot long balcony is not uncommon. The depth of the balconies on all units will range from 0 feet to 12 feet.

[museumparktom]

12 x 50 is 600 sqfeet. That's the size of a studio or a small one bedroom. Anyone know how much of Aqua is sold?

[Alliance]

12 x 50 is 600 sqfeet. That's the size of a studio or a small one bedroom. Anyone know how much of Aqua is sold?

[Mojava]

12 x 50 is 600 sqfeet. That's the size of a studio or a small one bedroom. Anyone know how much of Aqua is sold?

I believe Bvic reported a little while back they were 90% sold. Remember, this building also has 200 hotel rooms and 470+ rental units.

[pasadenabinks]

12 x 50 is 600 sqfeet. That's the size of a studio or a small one bedroom. Anyone know how much of Aqua is sold?

yes, but these are not rectangular balconies. A balcony might be 50' long and 12' wide at its widest point and taper to 0' wide at both ends. That would probably mean it's closer to 300 sqfeet. (which is still quite large).
