Hyatt Center

71 South Wacker (previously known as the "Hyatt Center") is an American office tower in Chicago completed in 2005. The 48-story skyscraper stands at 679 feet (207 m) on 71 South Wacker Drive. It is owned by the California-based Irvine Company, which also owns One North Wacker and 300 North LaSalle. The architects were Pei Cobb Freed & Partners. The tower is notable for the lozenge shaped plan and the resulting convex curves of the steel and glass north and south facades. The 1,765,000 square foot (164,000 m2) building contains 65,000 cubic yards (50,000 m3) of concrete and 12,000 tons of structural steel. It took about 2,700 truckloads to excavate the building's foundation, and 1,300,000 man hours over nearly two years to finish. Twenty-eight high speed elevators serve the building. The building features extensive landscape design by Chicago's Hoerr Schaudt Landscape Architects, both inside and outside, from bamboo groves, complete with fountains, lining the modern lobby to lush green grass in raised curved stone planters on the building's south side. 71 South Wacker also contains art panels by Keith Tyson and a trompe-l'œil mural by Ricci Albenda. The anchor tenants of the building include Colliers International, Benesch Law, EVRAZ North America, Columbia Threadneedle Investments and Mayer Brown LLP. The floor 2 cafe is available to all tenants and registered guests. The build
