CHICAGO TOWER WITH OTIS ELEVATORS NEARLY COMPLETE

The third, 41-story mixed-use tower in Onni Group's Old Town Park development on Chicago's Near North Side is nearing completion, with the glass curtain wall reaching the final floors, Chicago YIMBY reports. Located at 228 West Hill Street, the tower includes four Otis elevators equipped with a destination-dispatch system for occupants of 456 apartments, Paul Alessandro, partner with project architect Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture (HPA) tells ELEVATOR WORLD. Offices and a sixth-floor amenity deck will also be offered. The design includes long rows of balconies with dividing walls between units and a ribbon-like element wrapping around the exterior. Joining two previously completed towers, the structure is slated for completion in 2021.
