Waldorf-Astoria Hotel and Residence Tower

Waldorf-Astoria Hotel and Residence Tower Chicago is a planned hotel and condominium skyscraper that would have been 1,265 feet (386 m) tall. The Prime Group was in charge of the project, which was proposed at a cost of $610 million. The building would have been located one block from the Chicago River, and north of the Sheraton Chicago in the Streeterville neighborhood of the Near North Side community area of Chicago. Another of the building's developers, the Fordham Company, was also the initial developer of the now-cancelled Chicago Spire. The building would have been the third tallest building in Chicago, as only the Willis Tower and the Trump International Hotel and Tower are taller than 1,200 feet (366 m). It would have been among the tallest buildings in the world, since only 25 buildings in the world currently exceed 1,200 feet (366 m). Early in 2012, the approval process began for a much smaller mixed-use tower on the site.
