Inaugurated in 2010, it has become one of major entertainment attractions and the most amazing destination in the downtown Chicago. The hotel seems to wave smoothly towards high up the sky with curving balconies. It is designed by a Chicago-based architecture and design firm led by Jeanne Gang of Studio Gang Architects.
