DESCRIPTION
Mid Continental Plaza was built as an office tower in Chicago in the 1970s. The building was partially adapted to residential use in the upper nine floors in 2013. This change demanded a facade intervention that consisted in a re clad, adding a different character to the top portion of the building.
