Description
This building is the newest gem of Chicago's downtown. Its location on the west bank of the river demands its unusual shape - the building's base only occupies about a third of the lot and expands upward, as it is perched above active train tracks. In a remarkable feat of engineering, this 53-story office highrise utilizes several thousand gallons of water in tanks at the top that shift with the blowing of the wind.

It literally just finished opening (not even on Google Maps or street view yet), as one of the eye-catching glass hulks of "Wolf Point," the confluence of the rivers downtown. Among these are River Point (also on workshop) and the Wolf Point condo complex which is currently under construction. This is some of the utmost luxurious (and pricey) office and living space in the city, and thereby the country, I suspect.

Scale - 1:1
Height - 228 m (747')
Footprint - 9x4
Tris - 2600 (LOD 120)
Texures - 1024x2048 (d,s,n,i,a)

RICO ready - 90 offices

Featuring the glorious semi-transparent "rotors shader" (thanks Ronyx69) for the glass lobby at the building's rear. My first experiment with that shader and with sub-buildings, so obviously not perfect but getting there. Also, this building has irregular floor heights, which the game's floor settings can't handle, but them's the breaks.

Thumbs up if you like it!

@honker man thts dope. Chicago style housing is lacking from the workshop choices that are available.

@theb2blandlord yes i do, there are some small residential assets in the works

@honker thanks for the details. Do u have any plans of making anymore Chicago style housing? Ive been looking for a brick version of your 2 flat to go along with your limestone

What up man. first off thanks for all of these dope assets from the Chi. I'm from NY but I spend mad time in Chicago and for better and worse, I love the city. So I'm building it on CS using crazygluits map and a ton of your assets. I have a question though. How should I know which model of the building (1:1 -or- 1:5:1) to use in my build? I've laid down roads for the Bridgeport, Mckinley Park and Armour Square hoods. I'm also trying to correctly place fire, police, schools, hospitals, water treatment/sewage, transportation lines...Now I'm adding in homes and the scale looks odd for some things compared to the base game.

I do use Move it. If it comes down to it I'll use that mod to get it in the right place.

By the way, thank you for the content you've made for this game! This new building is one of my favorites among many of yours. I visited Chicago last year and it's nice to be able to have many of those buildings I saw, in my city.

Okay. Do you use Move it? Also I updated the asset again to fix the name in case that was causing the problem

Thanks for replying so quickly! Didn't expect that kind of response. After loading some previous saves, it looks like it's Network Extensions causing the issue. I had installed the mod yesterday, and was able to exit the game and reload saves several times without any issues. I noticed your asset was updated today. That's why initially I thought it was this update.

After disabling Network Extensions I was able to get the save to load. The building doesn't appear, but I can sort of put it back. The only issue is the game won't let me place it flush in a corner, at an intersection. However, I can place the building one space away (if that makes sense). I would post a screenshot but I gotta get going, I'll check back in later.

uh oh! one sec

I think you broke my save game :(

Note: the following assets are used in your city but could not be found. You should get the assets if possible. These cases can break savegames.
