Lincoln Park Tower was conceived as a rental complex in 1966, offering 348 units ranging from studios to 2-bedroom units. A decade later, the owners of the building converted it into a condominium building, thereby creating the Lincoln Park Tower Condominium Association. One of the recent capital projects the Association undertook was the renovation of the outdoor swimming pool and sun deck. The goal was to improve access to the terrace deck while brightening the space at night. Tandem worked closely with Bernard Jacobs from Jacobs / Ryan Landscape Architects on this project. The scope of work included a new paver brick roof surface, a steel and wood pergola, a new stone fountain, ipe cladded stairs with LED lighting accents, new planters, and new landscaping. Highly regarded for its lush beauty, the new space is an elevated amenity for the building that residents will enjoy for the years to come.
