Cascade Lakeshore East

A cluster of modern skyscrapers by the waterfront, with a tall, sleek tower dominating the skyline under a clear blue sky.

Cascade is one of Magellan Development‘s newest high rises. In addition to many popular communities throughout Chicago, like the Gallery on Wells and Exhibit on Superior, Magellan is known for being the developer behind the Lakeshore East community. Over the past several decades, they’ve developed many high rises, commercial space, public enhancements, and Lakeshore East park, turning the former golf course into a full-blown neighborhood. Cascade is one of three buildings within the parcels IJKL in Lakeshore East, one of the last remaining areas to be developed in the neighborhood. The edgy interior design, thoughtful layouts, striking architectural details, and useful amenities make Cascade a standout building.

The glass facade, accented with copper expression panels,  will reflect the surroundings, including Lake Michigan and nearby park, making Cascade an homage to what’s already beautiful in Lakeshore East. Upon completion, Cascade will be 37 stories with 503 rental units. Amenities will include a pool deck, an outdoor kitchen and grilling stations, a media room, multiple communal lounges, work space, fire pits, and more.
