City by Design: Chicago: An Architectural Perspective of Chicago


Overview

Showcasing prominent commercial structures and the talented architects who brought them to life, these pictorial histories contain outstanding photography of some of the leading cities in the United States. Offering insight into the diversity and progression of metropolitan architecture, different firms represented in this series discuss the influences found in their featured work. Illuminating the unique and defining characteristics of each building, the process that brought it to fruition, and the impact each structure had on the community at large, these artistic chronicles will delight lovers of architecture, travel, and urban living. Works of architecture presented in this volume include Goettsch Partners' majestic 111 South Wacker, Solomon Cordwell Buenz's chic 340 on the Park, VOA's restoration of the legendary Navy Pier, and Skidmore Owings & Merrill's Trump International Hotel and Tower - which will be second in height only to Chicago's famed Sears Tower.
