A new skyscraper in Chicago
New skyscraper of the well-known architect Santiago Calatrava, however, will be built. On April 19, the project received the approval of the Chicago City Planning Commission. The 610 meter high tower will stand at the mouth of the Chicago River - it will house 1200 luxury apartments and will be the highest residential building in the world.
The total height will be 610 m. Construction began in June 2007 and should end around 2010. The skyscraper will be the tallest building in Chicago and the United States, although not in the world, because the construction of Burj Dubai will end approx. 2 years earlier. It will become the tallest residential building in the world, as well as the tallest free-standing structure in North America, surpassing the CN Tower in Toronto, currently the highest detached building in the world.
