The Heritage at Millennium Park

The Heritage at Millennium Park is a residential tower in downtown Chicago rising 192 meters across 57 floors with glass and steel construction. The building contains roughly 250 units designed with large windows and open floor plans that take advantage of views across the city.

This tower opened in 2005 as part of Chicago's broader development in the Loop district during that period. The design intentionally incorporated salvaged facades from older buildings to blend historical elements with modern construction.

The building preserves four historical facades at street level, creating a bridge between contemporary design and Chicago's urban past. These retained storefronts allow you to see the original character of the place as you walk by.

You can explore the building from the street and take in the architecture and surrounding parks from ground level. The base connects to Chicago's pedway system, which is especially helpful during bad weather when you want to stay indoors.

The building was positioned to offer direct sightlines to Millennium Park, Grant Park, and Lake Michigan from many vantage points. This placement makes it a key reference point in Chicago's skyline since these three major landmarks become visible from various locations in the city.
