The Legacy at Millennium Park is a mixed-use tower at Wabash Avenue and Monroe Street in Chicago. It was designed by Solomon Cordwell Buenz and developed by Mesa Development. Construction began in 2006, and it was completed in 2009.

The tower rises 819 feet (250 meters) and has 72 floors. It holds 360 luxury condominiums and 460 parking spaces. A narrow design maximizes views of Lake Michigan and Millennium Park. The tower is the 18th tallest building in Chicago.

The lower floors hold 41,000 square feet (3,800 square meters) of classroom space for the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. A skybridge links the tower to the neighboring University Club, whose athletic facilities are also here. The project preserves the masonry and terracotta facades of the Jewelers Row District on Wabash Avenue, a Chicago Landmark.
