I'm not willing to settle at such an important site. The new building isn't even arcading the sidewalk, like
every other building on Congress between State and Michigan.
I'm willing to wait for a better proposal. This site has tremendous views to the southwest because of the curve in the L tracks and the general low-rise nature of Dearborn Park.
Wider-angle (but smaller) rendering:
This is, apparently, more than just an "athletic facility". It's a fieldhouse and possibly an arena for Roosevelt's basketball and volleyball teams.
