Hilliard Center, near Chinatown. |
Located
at Cermak and State, this unique CHA project was designed by Bertand
Goldman, the architect of Marina City, a downtown private housing
development. Completed in 1966, Hilliard Center consists of two 22-story
arc-shaped buildings and two 16-story circular buildings (like the
one shown here). Although they stand out for their appearance, the
buildings' circular shapes magnify sound and make the development
very loud. |
