Location
The land on which this tower is being constructed is also known as River Point as it lies at a point in the Chicago River where the north and south branches form.
As required by the city of Chicago, the building will also include a 1.5 acres public park[4] and a landscaped riverwalk that is open to the public. To accommodate the land required for the public park and river walk it will be built on top of a set of active railroad tracks.
