Geocache Description:

A magnetic key holder.

The River City development was designed by architect Bertrand Goldberg, whose most famous work was Marina City (“the corn cobs.”) Despite a similar design and methodology, River City, completed over two decades after Marina (1986 and 1964, respectively) never saw the success of its predecessor. On the contrary, it is quite a failed project.

River City was originally intended to be a series of four towers 85-stories tall; the building as it stands today was meant to be a base to support behemoths that were never finished. In addition, there are thousands of square feet of empty retail space on the first floor; slabs of cement that have stood waiting since 1986.

I still think they are cool!



I was going to place in the little wooded area just to the north but there was a homeless camp in there.
