The building contains 486 luxury residential condominiums. Each of the setbacks is designed to reflect the nearby buildings: the first was designed to align with the Wrigley Building, the second with the Marina City Towers, and the third with the 330 North Wabash building. The design of the building incorporates three setbacks to help lend an aesthetically pleasing continuity to the Chicago skyline. The demolition and construction were financed by a $650 million dollar loan from Deutsche Bank and a trio of hedge fund investors. In October 2004, the demolition of the former Chicago Sun-Times Building began and in March 2005 construction began. Designĭesigned by Skidmore, Owings & Merril, the Trump Tower resides in the space formerly occupied by the Chicago Sun-Times and sits on the North side of the Chicago River just west of the Wrigley Building.
