This major two phase adaptive re-use project involved segregating the lower floors to independently accessed Class A office space and converting the upper 10 floors into 215 luxury condominium residences. A new resident lobby with canopy and illuminated marquis provide a distinguished entry at 65 East Monroe with access to a private elevator bank. At the residential levels, the existing narrow fixed glass curtain wall was replaced by an expansive operable window wall featuring private recessed terraces. Removal of a penthouse level mechanical plant allowed for the removal of every other exterior column which housed ventilation ducts for offices. At the penthouse level, amenities include landscaped outdoor terrace, roof top sky deck, hot tub, indoor swimming pool and fitness center, media and community rooms.
