Building will be of reinforced
concrete construction. Sheathed
in white granite, it will present
a striking contrast to the city’s
glass and russet-colored steel
court and office building which
will rise across the plaza along
Randolph S’.reet.
Designed by Skidmore, Ow
ings & Merrill, the building will
employ an unusual “stressed
skin” technique never before
used on this scale in Chicago.
The exterior wall will be a
structural, weight-bearing ele
ment. making possible exceed
ingly spacious column-free in
teriors. It will contain 835,000
sq. ft. of floor area.
Only 50 percent of the 44,150
square-foot site -- extending
241 feet on Washington Street
and 183 feet on Dearborn
Street — will be covered at
the ground level. The remain
der of the area will be given
over to the landscaping, includ
ing a plaza on the west, with
trees and display plantings
along Dearborn Street.
Presenting a sculptured ap
pearance. the building will ta
per upward, giving a feeling
of lightness despite its immen
se bulk. The structure will ap
pear to rest on a pedestal for
med by a two-story concrete
g rder supported by seven-foot
square granite-faced concrete
columns.
Within the columns, set back
from the walks, will be the
main glassed-in lobby area
which features an unusually
high, 26-foot ceiling height.
The main lobby will include a ■
major restaurant and display
areas. The lobby floor and ad
joining plaza areas will be
paved in opalescent granite.
The lower level, reached by
escalators, will have a shopping
plaza, as well as a cafeteria and
coffee shop. It will be connec
ted via a tunnel under Wash
ington Street to the Civic Cen
ter and direct to the Dearborn
Street subw-ay.
A total of 17 high-speed' ele- 1
vators, in three banks, will ser- j
vice the building. The top two
stories, 36 and 37, will contain
mechanical equipment and ten
ant storage. Additional mech
anical and service equipment
will be located in the lower
level and on the third floor.

tion to their past and present
contributions, and making this
special month the beginning of

and joyful yells as families

fishing lines: watching nature
movies: listening to stories and
singing around crackling camp
fires.
