DESCRIPTION
330 North Wabash, also known as AMA Plaza, is a mixed use (office + hotel) building in Chicago, Illinois, USA. The building was originally constructed in 1973, and in 2008 it was declared a Chicago landmark. The facade underwent an exterior restoration of the curtain wall and a glass replacement that was implemented between 2011 and 2013. In a first phase, sealant replacement at the tower curtain wall system (floors 2-50/roof), was implemented besides a deep cleaning of all exterior aluminum at the curtain wall system, and limited repair of original construction damage at exterior metal surfaces. The second phase contemplated complete glass replacement.
