The Esplanade Apartments, located at 900 and 910 N. Lake Shore Dr., Chicago, Ill., are the work of one the most influential architects in history, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The structure and integrity of the buildings remain artistically and historically unique. Designed by Mies van der Rohe and built by Herbert Greenwald, the Esplanade Apartments corniche along North Lake Shore Drive between Chestnut and Walton streets in the epicenter of Chicago's Magnificent Mile. They were the first high-rise buildings designed by Mies van der Rohe to fully implement a continuous exterior curtain wall that was articulated separate from the building’s structural frame. This technology would be used by Mies van der Rohe in all his future high-rise projects, including the celebrated Seagram Building completed in 1958, and has become the standard in modern high quality high-rise construction. The Esplanade Apartments require relatively low maintenance expenditures because of their brilliant simplicity of design. A modern art collection of 150 works accentuates public spaces throughout common areas. Amenities, which are as follows, strive for comfort and convenience: 24-hour doorman, On-site 24-hour engineer, Receiving room, Valet parking, Indoor bicycle parking, Sundeck, Laundry, Storage.
