Skyscraper Innovations: The Construction Materials Defining Chicago's Newest Tall Buildings

Join Chicago Architecture Center for a deep dive into how several tall buildings constructed in Chicago since 2000 have been influenced by innovations in concrete, steel, other metals and glass. We will dissect the facades and structures of these buildings to better understand how various material elements come together to allow the design of tall buildings.
