Official Press Release Related Midwest Resumes Construction of 111 West Wacker Drive Re-Imagined to become Chicago’s Premier Luxury Residential Tower 60-story Building Represents Visible Recovery of Real Estate Market Media Contact: Ashleigh Wayland 312-768-4764 (o) / 703-582-2231 (c) [email protected] CHICAGO – Today, Related Midwest joined Governor Pat Quinn, Alderman Brendan Reilly of the 42nd Ward and Commissioner Andrew Mooney, of the Chicago Department of Housing and Economic Development, to officially commemorate the construction re-start of 111 W. Wacker Drive -- the site of the former Waterview Tower. Once completed, the site will house the premier rental property on the Chicago River between the Loop business district and bustling River North submarket. The Silver LEED designed tower will also bring more than 900 new construction jobs to Chicago, demonstrating a visible recovery in one of Chicago’s most prominent real estate locations. The development is scheduled to be complete in the Spring of 2014. “We are thrilled to restart construction on 111 W. Wacker Drive and transform this long looming eyesore into the premier luxury rental tower on the Chicago River,” said Curt Bailey, President of Related Midwest. “We are grateful for the partnership of Governor Quinn, Mayor Emanuel, Alderman Reilly and Commissioner Mooney in bringing this development to fruition and creating 900 new construction jobs. 111 W. Wacker continues Related Midwest’s rich tradition of market-defining developments and will become the next great addition to the Related rental portfolio representing the finest luxury residential properties in the country.” 111 W. Wacker is the site of the former Waterview Tower, planned to include a Shangri-La Hotel and luxury condominiums. In 2008, construction reached the 28th floor but has been stalled ever since.

  • 0 Multi-Row Boundary-Labeling Algorithms for Panorama Images
    0 Multi-Row Boundary-Labeling Algorithms for Panorama Images Andreas Gemsa, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology Jan-Henrik Haunert, University of Osnabruck¨ Martin Nollenburg¨ , Karlsruhe Institute of Technology Boundary labeling deals with placing annotations for objects in an image on the boundary of that image. This problem occurs frequently in situations where placing labels directly in the image is impossible or produces too much visual clutter. Examples are annotating maps, photos, or technical/medical illustrations. Previous algorithmic results for boundary labeling consider a single layer of labels along some or all sides of a rectangular image. If, however, the number of labels is large or the labels are too long, multiple layers of labels are needed. In this paper we study boundary labeling for panorama images, where n points in a rectangle R are to be annotated by disjoint unit-height rectangular labels placed above R in K different rows (or layers). Each point is connected to its label by a vertical leader that does not intersect any other label. We present polynomial time algorithms based on dynamic programming that either minimize the number of rows to place all n labels, or maximize the number (or total weight) of labels that can be placed in K rows for a given integer K. For weighted labels, the problem is shown to be (weakly) NP-hard, and we give a pseudo-polynomial algorithm to maximize the weight of the selected labels. We have implemented our algorithms; the experimental results show that solutions for realistically-sized instances are computed instantaneously. Further, we have also investigated two-sided panorama labeling, where the labels may be placed above or below the panorama image.
