About This File
Presenting the third iteration of 150 North Michigan! Previously known as the Smurfit-Stone Building, the Stone Container Building, and before that, the Associates Center, this is the first version to feature nightlighting.
Built in 1983 at the corner of Randolph Street and Michigan Avenue in Chicago, 150 North Michigan has been a source of perennial controversy since construction. It was built in an area with several notable Chicago landmarks in the Beaux-Arts Style, and many architecture critics hated how it dismissed the classical architecture around it. They also hated the way the building's designers, A. Epstein & Sons, eschewed the traditional flat roof for a sweeping diamond-shaped cross-section that spans 19 floors. Since there was no roof to put ventilation units and elevator motors, these mechanical functions are placed inside the highest floors at the very peak of the building.
Today a famous landmark, it is often cited as one of Chicago's most distinctive buildings, and stylized representations of the city's skyline usually feature the building.
I have provided 3 versions for your enjoyment - a vanilla Landmark lot with no jobs, a growable CO§§ building, and a ploppable CO§§ building. All 3 use the same building model.
