North Harbor Tower

North Harbor Tower is a residential skyscraper in downtown Chicago that rises 56 stories above the city streets. The building's exterior features distinctive triangular window projections that extend outward across all facades, creating an unusual architectural profile.

Construction of North Harbor Tower was completed in 1988, establishing itself as a major residential addition to Chicago's downtown landscape. The tower has remained one of the city's significant residential structures since its opening.

The residential community within North Harbor Tower maintains regular social gatherings and events that strengthen connections among neighbors living in downtown Chicago.

The building features an indoor swimming pool, a fitness center open around the clock, and an outdoor terrace area for relaxation. The distinctive triangular window projections allow many units to benefit from expanded sight lines and abundant natural light throughout the day.

The triangular window projections were intentionally designed to maximize views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago River for residents. This distinctive architectural choice makes the tower visually recognizable among Chicago's residential skyline.
