Requirements: PDF Reader, 18,1 Mb
Overview: Chicago has many iconic buildings, but perhaps none as instantly recognizable as Bertrand Goldberg’s Marina City,commonly referred to as the “corncob buildings.” Occupying an entire city block, the mixed-use riverside complex consists of two cylindrical sixty-five-story residential towers, a saddle-shaped auditorium, and a midrise office building. Each tower contains more than four hundred apartments and a continuous, upward-spiraling ramp of parking spaces. Built in 1964 at a moment when Chicagoans were fleeing to the suburbs, the hugely ambitious project was architect Goldberg’s attempt to save the city of Chicago.
