NEW YEAR'S EVE AT ROOF ON THEWIT

Perched 27 stories above the Loop sidewalks, the nightlife experience at the 7,000-square-foot lounge ROOF can be defined in a word: View. The scene from the deck and out the windows of ROOF is jaw-droppingly spectacular; gaze in one direction to see the Bean at Millennium Park, another way to see a slice of the Chicago River, and any which way to take in the up-close details of architectural icons standing sentry in every direction. Long fire pits lined with bar stools, a large projection screen on an outdoor wall, and a high-quality telescope for sneaking peeks into surrounding buildings are all part of the sensual, sensory experience at ROOF. Sip specialty cocktails while enjoying small plates and flatbreads as you take in the views 27 stories above it all.
