Plaza 440, Residential skyscraper in River North, Chicago, United States
Plaza 440 is a 49-story residential tower standing at the intersection of Wabash and Hubbard streets in River North. The building houses more than 450 apartments within its tall frame and adds significantly to the visual character of this downtown neighborhood.
The building was completed in 1992, ending a period of intensive high-rise construction in Chicago. Its completion marked a turning point in how the city approached downtown residential development.
The building stands as an example of 1990s architectural design in Chicago, reflecting the period's approach to urban residential development.
The building offers a fitness center, swimming pool, sauna, and hot tub for residents to use. Additional facilities include business offices, a private theater space, and shared laundry rooms.
In the early 2000s, the building became a target for investors after its market value climbed sharply in just a couple of years. This rise reflected how sought-after residential space had become in the River North area.
