There are three comments.

  this building nicely compliments Water Tower, and beats most anything on the Mag Mile. The Skidmore firm puts out highest quality work,and this bldg is no exception

this building gets better with age - Tuesday, September 29th, 2009 @ 3:24pm  

  It's not the most attractive building on this side of town, but it does add to the overall height. And it helps to establish a certain "mass" that reaches its pinnacle at John Hancock Center. Still, a nice skyscraper in a wonderful part of downtown Chicago!

  In a stellar skyline - THE stellar skyline perhaps - this serves only to add heigth. It is not my favourite.
