Completed in 2005 with a height of 631 feet and 57 floors, the building was designed by the architectural firm Solomon Cordwell Buenz (architects of Legacy Tower as well).
The tower's success lies mainly with its location; it is directly to the west of Millennium Park, guaranteeing unobstructed views of Millennium Park, parts of Grant Park, and Lake Michigan forever. It is directly opposite the Marshall Field and Company Building on Wabash Avenue. Additionally, the Heritage boasts a private indoor pool, healthclub, dog run, party room, rooftop deck and indoor parking.
In what is becoming common practice with newer buildings, the Heritage preserves and makes use of the façades of four existing buildings in its base. The tower is also special in the fact that both residents and the public can enjoy the tower's inclusion in the extensive downtown underground pedway system. In addition to condominiums, the Heritage also contains ground floor retail space.
