Everything about The Heritage At Millennium Park totally explained
The Heritage at Millennium Park located at 130 N. Garland Court is a relatively new mixed use tower in
Chicago. Completed in 2005 with a height of 631 feet and 57 floors, the building was designed by the architectural firm
Solomon Cordwell Buenz (developers of
Legacy Tower as well).
The tower's success lies mainly with its location; it's directly to the west of
Millennium Park, guaranteeing unobstructed views of
Millennium Park, parts of
Grant Park, and
Lake Michigan forever. It is directly opposite the
Marshall Field and Company Building on Wabash Avenue. Additionally, the Heritage boasts a private indoor pool, healthclub, dog run, party room, rooftop deck and indoor parking.
In what is becoming common practice with newer buildings, the Heritage preserves and makes use of the
façades of four existing buildings in its base. The tower is also special in the fact that both residents and the public can enjoy the tower's inclusion in the extensive downtown underground
pedway system. In addition to condominiums, the Heritage also contains ground floor retail space.
Trivia
It was said that Mayor
Richard M. Daley was considering moving to the tower, but later decided to stay put in his South Loop residence as noted in an article in the Chicago Tribune in November 2005.
According to the 2000 census, 16,388 people live in the Loop. More recently, 60602 was named by Forbes as the hottest zip code in the country with upscale buildings such as the Heritage at Millennium Park (130 N. Garland) leading the way for other buildings such as
Waterview Tower,
The Legacy at Millennium Park and Momo. The median sale price for residential real estate was $710,000 in 2005 according to Forbes. The average sale price at the Heritage in 2006 was $1.283 million according to data from the MLS and Rubloff.
The building bears a slight resemblance to
One Rincon Hill in
San Francisco (
