Marina City
Marina City is a mixed-use residential/commercial building complex in Chicago, Illinois. It occupies almost an entire city block on State Street and sits on the north bank of the Chicago River in downtown Chicago, directly across from the Loop. The complex consists of two corncob-shaped, 587-foot (179 m), 65-story towers, as well as a saddle-shaped auditorium building and a mid-rise hotel building. Designed by Bertrand Goldberg, Marina City was the first building in the United States to be constructed with tower cranes.Photograph: Diego Delso
