dc.description | Vertical view of structure, from east, depicting contrast in form with Goldberg's Marina City towers in view behind and to the left of IBM; Mies died in 1969 before construction began. A small bust of the architect by sculptor Marino Marini is displayed in the lobby. The 47-story building is situated on a plaza overlooking the Chicago River and is across the street from the construction site of the Trump International Hotel and Tower. At 695 feet, 330 North Wabash is the second-tallest building by Mies van der Rohe, the tallest being the Toronto-Dominion Bank Tower at Toronto-Dominion Centre. The building's corporate namesake no longer owns nor has offices in the building. Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (accessed 12/2/2007) | en_US |
