Alignment with Capabilities
- Design Strengths: Ethereal Architects specializes in innovative, sustainable urban design. This aligns well with the project’s need for an iconic and LEED-compliant development.
- Portfolio Match: We have completed similar commercial projects in urban areas, including mixed-use developments and office towers in Chicago and other major cities.
Challenges
- Budget Constraints: A $120 million budget for this scale of development (especially with sustainability goals) could present challenges in balancing iconic design with cost control.
- Timeline: The timeline is realistic but allows minimal room for delays in design or permitting.
- Competition: The River North location and high-profile nature of the project will attract leading firms, increasing competition.
