‘The firm started out creating community centers like Glencoe’s Writers Theatre, and over the years has expanded its portfolio to include civic, residential, and hospitality projects, most recently, the riverside St. Regis Chicago. . . . Employing nearly 100 practitioners from all over the world, Gang uses design to unite people, nature, and communities—always with an eye on sustainability. “I have always been excited about making it possible for people to step outside on a terrace or balcony of a tall building,” Gang says of her residential work. “The sculptural aspects of my buildings grow out of the qualities that make the insides great for living.”’
“Soaring from the river’s edge, Jeanne Gang’s St. Regis Chicago is one of the most significant additions to the skyline in a generation.”
