The building is 54 stories tall and was designed by Goettsch Partners. The building occupies a two-acre site on the west bank of the Chicago River, whose size and location demanded an unusually small base for the building. The building features 1.2 e6sqft m2 of leasable office space. Due to its unique superstructure design, it encompasses just 25 percent of the lot. In 2019, the building was given the Chicago Chapter of the American Institute of Architects' highest award for design excellence.https://www.chicagotribune.com/columns/blair-kamin/ct-biz-chicago-architecture-awards-kamin-20191026-dnt7y4wsgrfo5lqpbve3oxwrhe-story.html Column: Top architecture awards go to riverfront skyscraper, U. of C.’s public policy school and IIT’s innovation center Kamin Blair October 25, 2019 Chicago Tribune 2019-11-06 Among the building's tenants is the Hyatt Corporation, who moved their headquarters to the building upon its completion.Ecker Danny Former Hyatt Center revamps tenant roster https://www.chicagobusiness.com/commercial-real-estate/former-hyatt-center-revamps-tenant-roster Crain's Chicago Business 15 June 2022 12 December 2018 Background As required by the city of Chicago for any new riverfront building, the developer was required to set aside part of the lot size for public park space; 75 percent of the project site is reserved for a public park, amphitheater, and riverwalk.

The west side of the building features a lobby with a glass wall that is nearly 100 ft tall at its peak. The architect's intention is to connect the interior and exterior visually. One signature aspect of 150 North Riverside building is the way the office floors cantilever out from the central core. The building is constructed with a smaller base for a height of 8 stories (104 ft), and cantilevers out to the full size of the office floor space.http://150northriverside.com/magic-fingers-the-most-spectacular-engineering-show-in-chicago-right-now-on-display-at-150-north-riverside/ https://web.archive.org/web/20150925123536/http://150northriverside.com/magic-fingers-the-most-spectacular-engineering-show-in-chicago-right-now-on-display-at-150-north-riverside/ dead September 25, 2015 150 North Riverside August 2, 2015 September 7, 2017 Architecture Chicago Plus This gives it a slenderness ratio of 1:20 at its base. With its slender profile, the building was designed with a "tuned liquid damper" system. This system consists of two water-filled concrete vaults, located near the top of the skyscraper. As strong winds push up against the face of the building, the water sloshes in the opposite direction. These counteracting forces eliminate any sway that could occur during harsh weather.http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/ct-150-north-riverside-review-ae-0423-20170419-story.html Review: 150 North Riverside is most eye-grabbing Chicago skyscraper since Aqua Tower Chicago Tribune Kamin Blair April 20, 2017 September 7, 2017 Standing 752 ft (229m) tall, it is the tallest building in Chicago that is located west of the Chicago River.150 North Riverside - The Skyscraper Center https://www.skyscrapercenter.com/building/150-north-riverside/15587 2024-08-22 www.skyscrapercenter.com 150 Media Stream Located in the lobby of 150 N Riverside, the 150 Media Stream is a public media art installation divided into 89 LED blades.
