“In a Flash”: Documentary celebrates the life of Chicago architect Helmut Jahn
Famed Chicagoan Helmut Jahn is memorialized in a new short documentary film, spotlighting the late architect’s distinguished career.

Filmmaker Nathan Eddy initially interviewed Jahn for “Starship Chicago,” a 2016 documentary focusing on the complex history of the Thompson Center. Jahn had been the architectural mastermind behind that grand — and polarizing —public project. Now, five years on, Eddy’s new documentary “Helmut Jahn: In a Flash” repurposes their conversation to delve deeper into the evolution of Jahn’s glassy, postmodern style.

“When I got here in the ‘60s, Chicago was the center of the architecture world,” Jahn explains at the start of the film. But as time wore on, and technology progressed, his aesthetic advanced to reflect great material changes. And though the Thompson Center may remain his most famous Chicago structure, he designed a score of other notable local buildings. Among them: The Lakeside Center at McCormick Place, One South Wacker, the O’Hare ‘L’ station, O’Hare’s United Airlines Terminal 1, the CitiGroup Center and the University of Chicago’s newest library. And his influence on the Chicago skyline is ongoing. Recently, construction recommenced on one of Jahn’s final projects, the Michigan Avenue skyscraper 1000M.

Core Rises For 1000M Tower In South Loop
This week, YIMBY stopped by the rising core at 1000M, currently Chicago’s fourth tallest construction project. Located at 1000 S Michigan Avenue just across from Grant Park, this 788-foot-tall, 73-story residential tower is set to house a total of 738 rental units. The developer trio of JK Equities, Time Equities, and Oak Capitals had originally planned 506 condominiums, but ultimately pivoted due to the city’s booming apartment market. The skyscraper resumed construction following a nearly two-year hiatus and a $304.5 million loan from Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank.
