Salesforce Tower, USA

US studio Pelli Clarke & Partners has completed the 57-storey Salesforce Tower along the Chicago River. The 259 meters office tower joins two residential towers and 2.3 acres of public park space across the 4-acre Wolf Point development. The Wolf Point project has taken 14 years to complete, masterplanned by Pelli Clarke & Partners and developed by Hines. Salesforce Tower Chicago is LEED-Gold certified and was built using 27 percent less concrete and nine percent less steel compared to similar buildings in its category, resulting in a 19 percent reduction in total carbon emissions. Its gentle, curving form evokes lightness and enthusiasm with layers of graceful curves and rounded glass corners that appear to dissolve into the sky.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The 111,483 square meters skyscraper is composed of several glass-clad volumes of ascending height, sandwiched together to create a central point. Its base contains a double-height lobby lined with transparent glass that meets a small park and a newly expanded walking path along the river. Retail and dining areas are also included on ground level, while a parking lot with 2,000 bike spaces is located underground. The skyscraper's top two floors contain event spaces for office-goers, as well as local non-profits on the evenings and weekends.
