The Architect’s Newspaper recently profiled three Chicago development firms that are making a difference in the downtown real estate market by placing an emphasis on their buildings’ design. We’re proud to announce that Magellan Development was included in the group and that the media outlet called Magellan “one of the most innovative and design-minded [firms] in Chicago.”
Magellan’s Aqua has certainly changed the downtown Chicago skyline—lead architect Jeanne Gang gave Magellan a gift when she created the undulating balconies that have garnered so much praise and press for the building. The Architect’s Newspaper highlights that Lakeshore East has many design-forward buildings representing a variety of different architectural styles and firms: “Based on a masterplan by SOM and built around a park designed by the Office of James Burnett with Site Design Group, the project includes buildings designed by DeStefano + Partners, Solomon Cordwell Buenz, Steinberg Architects, and Studio Gang, all within walking distance of the Loop and the lakefront.”
Our Co-CEO and an architect by trade, James Loewenberg, offered his take on the outstanding design of Aqua and the entire Lakeshore East development. “Aqua is a one-of-a-kind building, and it’s definitely got a lot of cachet in the architecture community. From the beginning, we wanted buildings by different architects with different points of view. We think variety is a really good thing, as long as we maintain high quality.”
