Staybridge

Here's an interesting-looking project by Valerio Dewalt Train, a hotel titled Miglin Staybridge.

As described in the News portion of the architect's web page:

"Chicago�s LaSalle Street starts at the Board of Trade in the heart of the City�s modern financial district and ends at the Lakefront in Lincoln Park, one of its most historic residential districts. The Miglin Staybridge Suites, a two hundred room extended stay hotel is a marker on the skyline, separating these two very different areas. It is the last landmark of the city�s modernist core, reveling in the messy vitality of the urban core, before the more restrained fabric of Lincoln Park begins to dominate."

For reference, the new McDonald's is a block or few south (right on the rendering). Thanks to Karen for the head's up.
