    PRELIMINARY STAFF SUfv1MARY OF INFORMATION 333 North Michigan Buildi·n·g- 333 N. Michigan Avenue Submitted to the Conwnission on Chicago Landmarks in June 1986. Rec:ornmended to the City Council on April I, 1987. CITY OF CHICAGO Richard M. Daley, Mayor Department of Planning and Development J.F. Boyle, Jr., Commissioner 333 NORTH MICIDGAN BUILDING 333 N. Michigan Ave. (1928; Holabird & Roche/Holabird & Root) The 333 NORTH MICHIGAN BUILDING is one of the city's most outstanding Art Deco-style skyscrapers. It is one of four buildings surrounding the Michigan A venue Bridge that defines one of the city' s-and nation' s-finest urban spaces. The building's base is sheathed in polished granite, in shades of black and purple. Its upper stories, which are set back in dramatic fashion to correspond to the city's 1923 zoning ordinance, are clad in buff-colored limestone and dark terra cotta. The building's prominence is heightened by its unique site. Due to the jog of Michigan Avenue at the bridge, the building is visible the length of North Michigan Avenue, appearing to be located in the center of the street. ABOVE: The 333 North Michigan Building was one of the first skyscrapers to take advantage of the city's 1923 zoning ordinance, which encouraged the construction of buildings with setback towers. This photograph was taken from the cupola of the London Guarantee Building. COVER: A 1933 illustration, looking south on Michigan Avenue. At left: the 333 North Michigan Building; at right the Wrigley Building. 333 NORTH MICHIGAN BUILDING 333 North Michigan Avenue Architect: Holabird and Roche/Holabird and Root Date of Construction: 1928 0e- ~ 1QQ 2 00 Cft T Dramatically sited where Michigan Avenue crosses the Chicago River are four build­ ings that collectively illustrate the profound stylistic changes that occurred in American architecture during the decade of the 1920s.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 18, 2014 CONTACT: Mayor’s Press Office 312.744.3334 [email protected] MAYOR EMANUEL ANNOUNCES THE SECOND EXPANSION OF RETROFIT CHICAGO’S COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS INITIATIVE 16 additional facilities commit to 20 percent energy efficiency improvement within five years; current participants have achieved seven percent energy reduction to-date Marking another milestone in the City’s efforts to accelerate energy efficiency, Mayor Rahm Emanuel today announced the further expansion of Retrofit Chicago’s Commercial Buildings Initiative. The new building participants, including 11 higher education facilities, four commercial office buildings, and one cultural institution, have committed to at least 20 percent energy efficiency improvement within five years. This announcement expands the total program reach to 48 buildings and 37 million square feet, making Retrofit Chicago’s Commercial Buildings Initiative one of the largest private sector voluntary efficiency programs in the country. “Retrofit Chicago participants are leading a rising private sector energy movement that demonstrates how efficiency makes good business sense and good sense for our environment,” said Mayor Emanuel. “These buildings’ operational and capital improvements are saving money, reducing carbon emissions, creating 21st century jobs, and lowering the cost of doing business in Chicago.” To-date, current program participants have collectively achieved a seven percent reduction in total source energy use, with accompanying annual energy cost savings of $2.5 million and greenhouse gas emissions reductions equivalent to removing 5,800 cars from the road. Upon reaching the 20 percent improvement target, all 48 building participants have potential to save more than 150 million kilowatt-hours of electricity per year, while creating hundreds of local jobs in the growing clean energy economy.

  • Streeterville Neighborhood Plan 2014 Update II August 18, 2014
    Streeterville Neighborhood Plan 2014 update II August 18, 2014 Dear Friends, The Streeterville Neighborhood Plan (“SNP”) was originally written in 2005 as a community plan written by a Chicago community group, SOAR, the Streeterville Organization of Active Resi- dents. SOAR was incorporated on May 28, 1975. Throughout our history, the organization has been a strong voice for conserving the historic character of the area and for development that enables divergent interests to live in harmony. SOAR’s mission is “To work on behalf of the residents of Streeterville by preserving, promoting and enhancing the quality of life and community.” SOAR’s vision is to see Streeterville as a unique, vibrant, beautiful neighborhood. In the past decade, since the initial SNP, there has been significant development throughout the neighborhood. Streeterville’s population has grown by 50% along with new hotels, restaurants, entertainment and institutional buildings creating a mix of uses no other neighborhood enjoys. The balance of all these uses is key to keeping the quality of life the highest possible. Each com- ponent is important and none should dominate the others. The impetus to revising the SNP is the City of Chicago’s many new initiatives, ideas and plans that SOAR wanted to incorporate into our planning document. From “The Pedestrian Plan for the City”, to “Chicago Forward”, to “Make Way for People” to “The Redevelopment of Lake Shore Drive” along with others, the City has changed its thinking of the downtown urban envi- ronment. If we support and include many of these plans into our SNP we feel that there is great- er potential for accomplishing them together.

Places such as Milwaukee and even Kenosha were more naturally blessed. But it was here – on a swampy and malodorous scrap of land so unpromising the Potawatomi had hardly bothered to settle it – where the American story took root and grew to epic proportions. Marquette and Jolliet once had been forced to laboriously portage their canoes over this dank, mucky expanse at the southern tip of Lake Michigan, called “wild garlic” by locals and later referred to derisively as Mud Lake. But in the early 1800’s that was no obstacle for the indomitable spirit of newly-arrived Easterners who would carve canals, tunnel under the lake itself, and later hoist the foundations of the entire City, four to seven feet, just to keep their feet dry. Mud Lake soon became the vital link to the Mississippi and the Great Lakes, the heartland and the Atlantic, the past and future – with Chicago in the center.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 6, 2013 CONTACT: Mayor’s Press Office 312.744.3334 [email protected] MAYOR EMANUEL ANNOUNCES RETROFIT CHICAGO: COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS INITIATIVE DOUBLES IN SIZE Including new office, hotel, large residential, institutional properties; total program reach to over 28 million square feet Today Mayor Emanuel announced 18 new participants in Retrofit Chicago’s Commercial Buildings Initiative, bringing the program’s total reach to over 28 million square feet. This doubles the 14 million square feet represented by the program’s founding 14 participants. The Commercial Buildings Initiative was launched on June 5 by Mayor Emanuel and U.S. Secretary of Energy Dr. Steven Chu. “This expansion of Retrofit Chicago’s Commercial Buildings Initiative highlights the leadership of commercial building owners, managers, and tenants in making Chicago a center of building efficiency and a place where companies are maximizing their ability to compete,” said Mayor Emanuel. “These participants understand that in the modern economic environment, it is critical to operate at maximum efficiency. The commitments that have been made by these 32 organizations will create jobs and foster growth throughout Chicago’s economy, while improving our environment as well.” Energy efficiency and clean energy comprise one of seven focus areas outlined in Sustainable Chicago 2015, a three-year roadmap to drive sustainability through city operations, in residents’ day-to-day lives, and across our economy. The Commercial Buildings Initiative is one component of Retrofit Chicago – the City’s cross-sector effort to accelerate energy efficiency in buildings – which also includes energy efficiency efforts in municipal and residential buildings.
