OverviewThe story of 999 is the story of Chicago at one of the most pivotal and explosive moments in its history. Set along the city's storied lakefront, the author details the wealth, greed, power, corruption and even murder that accompanied the rise of arguably the most beautiful and historic residence ever built in Chicago. It sits on land that at one time was mostly under water, the site of a war over ownership that raged in courtrooms for 68 years. This is also the story of the building's residents--a range of personalities, passions, flaws and accomplishments--that will have you marveling at 999's broad engagement with American History.
