The design by NORR showcases a combination of glass and metal panels. It includes a curved penthouse and a kinetic wall on the podium, made of metal pieces that move in response to the wind. The main facade features dark metal frames surrounding the glass panels.

Looks even better than the renderings.
Agreed! More of this please for the rest of the River North parking lots
Looks really good glowing in that dusk lighting. I also enjoy watching the wind clappers on the garage while waiting for the train at the Chicago stop.
