At the end of the cafe sits The Colosseum which allows for large celebrations of team successes. One of the most unique pieces added was the cafe table which resembles a traditional Chicago bridge.

In these rooms, legal teams and clients can create a hyper-realistic simulated experience to prepare for trial.
