A tiered rental tower on the Streeterville lakefront, built on the hole left by the cancelled Chicago Spire, and the tallest building under construction in Chicago.

It topped out in July 2026 with completion slated for spring 2027, adding 635 apartments, 127 of them affordable. The Spire site sat empty for over a decade after the 2,000-foot tower collapsed in the financial crisis.
