One Hundred’s developer is Mac Properties, of Englewood, N.J. The private real estate firm plans to begin construction within a year and complete the approximately $130 million project in 2019.

Under founding principal Gang, Chicago-based Studio Gang’s emphasis on nature produced Aqua Tower and Solstice in the Park, among others. Studio Gang describes the 82-story Aqua Tower as a vertical landscape of hills, valleys and pools. Solstice, also in Chicago, is underway as a 26-story residential building with angled exterior windows that maximize winter daylight and minimize summer heat.

Gang said Thursday that One Hundred is designed to give its residents wide views of Forest Park to the west and the Arch to the east. Each of its 305 apartments will have a corner living room to increase the amount of interior daylight. One Hundred’s facade of angled glass is intended to enhance residents’ views and to save energy.

“In a climate with four distinct seasons, we wanted to make it possible for residents to enjoy the different views and natural changes in light over the course of the year,” Gang said. “By experimenting with the geometry of the facade and refining the apartment layouts, we were able to make every apartment into a corner unit perched above the park and city.”
