Presidential Towers Are Four of a Kind

by Matt B on August 4th, 2008

As the saying goes, 'there's strength in numbers.' That's certainly the case with the Presidential Towers, a residential complex that spans two city blocks (near 525 West Monroe). Each of these buildings wouldn't seem like much on its own. Built in 1985, the towers are 49 stories tall and 'boring brown.' However, standing four strong (six towers were originally planned), they make quite an impression in the West Loop. All of the towers are linked at the base and contain over 2,000 apartments.
