September 27, 2010 – (Above) Egyptian glass tile is freshly installed in the elevator lobby on the 53rd floor of the east tower at Marina City. It replaces a marble wall that was installed in the late 1970s. The model floor will give unit owners a taste of proposed changes to the residential hallways.

(Below) On October 6, the wall was covered to protect it from painting and other messy work nearby.
