Overview

The Legacy at Millennium Park is a 72-story, 822-foot residential skyscraper in downtown Chicago. Travelers visit primarily to view its slender modern architecture from street level and nearby green spaces, where it stands as one of the city's tallest structures.

Located in the Loop district, the site is reachable on foot within 5 to 10 minutes from central downtown. Multiple CTA train stations and bus routes along Michigan Avenue stop within two blocks.

Visiting Time
