400 Lake Shore is positioned on the last waterfront site where Lake Michigan meets the Chicago River. This innovative project will bring new luxury and affordable housing options along the lake front, as well as add 4.5 acres of open and green space to Streeterville. 

The towers, designed by the Chicago Office of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill with David Childs, will vary in height and be set at a slight angle to one another, forming a gateway that offers spectacular views along the lakefront and river corridors. The design features thoughtful nods to Chicago’s architectural history and geography. This includes reimagining the iconic “Chicago Window”—a bay window design that is a hallmark of the city’s historic architecture—as a shallow bay of floor-to-ceiling glass. Building interiors have been designed by MAWD, whose work includes Related's The Row Fulton Market, a precedent setting residential high rise recently completed. Local firm Stantec served as the Architect of Record for this project.

As part of its commitment to creating public green and open spaces, Related Midwest will partner with the Chicago Park District to bring DuSable Park to life. The 3.3-acre site, once home to Chicago’s founder Jean Baptiste Point DuSable, will be open to the public through Founders Way—a planned extension of the Chicago Riverwalk. In total, 400 Lake Shore will feature 4.5 acres of public land, including a plaza between the towers with amenities, retail space, and public art. 

With a projected completion date of early 2027, Phase One will consist of constructing the site’s 858-foot-tall North Tower. 

Phase One will be co-built by LR Contracting, Related Midwest’s in-house contracting company and long-time partner BOWA Construction. BOWA became the first minority-owned General Contractor to co-build a high-rise building in Chicago through its work on The Row Fulton Market.
