It earned a 2002 Honor Award for Regional and Urban Design from the American Institute of Architects.
The company has created luxury rental and condominium communities such as The Tides at Lakeshore East, The Shoreham at Lakeshore East, Grand Plaza, The Park Millennium, One Superior Place, and Dearborn Place. Condominium developments at Lakeshore East include the Aqua, Chicago, The Parkhomes, The Chandler, 340 on the Park, The Regatta, and The Lancaster.
