Overview

One Museum Park is the second-tallest building in the Central Station development, on the south side of Chicago and south of Van Buren Street (NEMA Chicago is the current tallest). It is also the third tallest all-residential building in Chicago after the Legacy at Millennium Park and NEMA Chicago.

Museum Park is a complex of multiple residential towers within the Central Station development at the southern edge of Grant Park, across Lake Shore Drive from Chicago's Museum Campus. Construction of One Museum Park was followed by the 54-story The Grant (formerly One Museum Park West), directly to the west at the corner of Roosevelt Road and Indiana Avenue.

Education

The building is zoned to schools in the Chicago Public Schools.
