This blog covers topics related to 130 North Garland, The Heritage Condominiums. The Heritage is a newer high rise condo tower in Chicago's Loop close to Millennium Park, Grant Park, Lake Michigan, and Michigan Avenue.
The Chicago Tribune had a great article on the near completion of the river walk to State Street.
The Michigan Ave to Wabash section is complete. The above picture shows O'Brien's Cafe along with the new walking path.
The good news is that the Wabash to State part will complete in the next two weeks. When complete, it will end near the Vietnam Memorial and The Heritage. You will be able to walk direct on the river level from The Heritage to the lake without having to go up and down stairs at each street and going under all the traffic.
The under bridge elements keep traffic debris off pedestrians and resemble the Cloud Gate (The Bean) exterior.
From Wednesday through Sept. 20, the Chicago Architecture Foundation has a great scale model of Chicago and The Heritage on display. The Chicago Tribune has a great overview of the project. \
The best part of the whole thing is that its only a 15 minute walk from our building and its free!
