Residents of the Lakeshore East luxury apartments at Cascade are no strangers to breathtaking views. Whether from the 32nd-floor Lakefront Terrace or from home, with views framed by floor-to-ceiling windows across 9-foot ceilings—or in some residences, via private balconies—residents can soak in views of the city and lakefront each morning, evening, and afternoon. Looking for a change of scenery? Just a short trip from Cascade is one of Chicago’s most awe-inspiring vantage points: the 360 CHICAGO Observation Deck.
There’s no better way to appreciate Chicago’s dynamic skyline than by taking it in from over 1,000 feet above The Magnificent Mile. The 360 CHICAGO Observation Deck offers just that, with views from the dizzying heights of the 94th floor of the former John Hancock Center. To the north, visitors can see the Chicago skyline meet the lakefront, while to the west and south, unobstructed views of Chicago and the city grid stretch on into the far horizon.
If taking in panoramic views from what feels like the top of the world is not enough to get your heart racing, thrill-seekers can seek out the ultimate 360 CHICAGO experience. 360 CHICAGO’s TILT is one of the world’s highest thrill rides, providing visitors a downward-facing view of the city (though safely secured, of course, for the ride). For some liquid courage beforehand or for a truly memorable happy hour or sunset cocktail with the city’s best views in the backdrop, visitors can also enjoy a drink from the full bar.
While 360 CHICAGO offers unparalleled views and a one-of-a-kind TILT experience, Cascade residents can appreciate each day with the city and its spectacular sights, sunrises, and sunsets greeting them from the comforts of home. During summer, Cascade also offers a perfect view of the Navy Pier fireworks – Chicago’s favorite sky spectacle show happening Wednesday and Saturday nights from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend.
