The Third Tallest Building in Chicago Being Built

Move over John Hancock Center, there is a new third tallest building in town.

The tallest building in Chicago currently is the Sears Tower. (Yes, I will forever call it the Sears Tower.) Next is the Trump International Hotel and then the John Hancock Center. Soon, the John Hancock Center will bump down in rankings to the fourth tallest building in Chicago.

The new number three will be, according to ABC7, an 95-story, 1,186-foot building near North Columbus and East Wacker Drives called The Vista Tower.

The Vista Tower is a large real estate investment by a Chinese firm in the U.S. It will house both residences and a five-star hotel!

If you are thinking that this will be a fantastic place to live, make sure you have got your money situated. A one-bedroom apartment will set you back about $1 million! WOW! The Vista Tower is set to open in 2019.

You have got to see how incredible this building is. Not only does it boast 360-degree views of the city, it adds a dramatic new piece of beauty to the Chicago Skyline.
