210 North Wells Construction Update
210 North Wells has "topped out" at the 44th floor. The construction crane is now in the process of being removed and the exterior is being painted.
The 550 car self park is targeted to open September 7, 2010. The garage will be fully automated and provide parking for the residents of the 210 North Wells apartment tower and the surrounding neighborhood.
Once finished in its entirety, 210 North Wells will include 330 apartments and over 9,000 square feet of retail space. In direct collaboration and partnership with the developer, Midwest Property Group, Hammerschlag & Co., Inc. has taken on the responsibility of the parking component of this building from the “ground up”.

The National Building Museum's, "House of Cars"
The National Building Museum exhibit, “House of Cars: Innovation and the Parking Garage,” was the first of its kind, paying due tribute to the oft-ignored architectural wonders known as parking garages. The Washington, D.C. exhibit, which ran from October 17, 2009 - July 11, 2010, investigated the past, present, and future of these well-known structures and the innovations that have developed throughout parking’s history.
