The Metropolitan is a 40,000-square-foot club located on the 66th and 67th floors within the Willis Tower. Renovations included the addition of Blueprint, a collaborative work area that will transform to a cocktail bar at night; Frame, a bar and lounge with food, drinks and live entertainment; and an upscale dining area called Craftsman that will honor Chicago’s architectural heritage, specifically that of Frank Lloyd Wright. The club, which also hosts private events such as weddings, parties and corporate meetings, remained open throughout the renovations. JCA also renovated the East Meeting Room and 66th floor meeting rooms to include a new buffet banquet bar with new tile and top, carpet, wood flooring, lighting and wall finishes.
