The plan was to aim for a three-year construction period starting in 2009 with sales targeted at $ 800/square foot instead of the $ 1200 range that the Spire had targeted. The building was designed to adhere to current trend in Chicago architecture that taller thin buildings are favored to shorter buildings providing the same square footage because the slender buildings block fewer views. The first 31 floors of the skyscraper would have had a St. Regis Hotel with 325 rooms, while the floors from 32 to 100 have residential apartments. There are 300 luxury apartments with 6 duplex penthouses from the 92nd to the 100th floor. The 101st floor of the skyscraper features a club lounge and a restaurant.
