Burnham 310
The tower was designed by VOA Associates, and was intended to be the cornerstone of the "Burnham District" that would link Campustown near the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign campus with Downtown Champaign. Upon its completion in 2008, Burnham 310 became the tallest building in the Champaign–Urbana metropolitan area, surpassing the Tower at Third. However, the building has been surpassed in height by 309 Green in 2009, and by HERE Champaign in 2015. The first floor of the tower is occupied by sales office space for Greystar Communities and Apartments. Attached to the east side of the tower is a County Market grocery store, which also houses a Caribou Coffee store. Currently, the County Market is the only full-service grocery store located within Campustown. A fitness center is also located on the first floor of the building. The second to eighteenth floors are a mixture of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Because of the completion of Burnham 310, the Champaign Park District made improvements to Scott Park. New playground equipment and landscaping updates were completed during summer 2009. The Stone Arch Bridge was structurally improved.
