The Architectural Geology of Downtown Chicago

"Few places, though, are as geologically rewarding as the heart of a great city, where the forces of economics, political power, and civic pride combine in the uniquely geological art form of architecture.  For the person interested in the scientific underpinning of architecture, losing oneself in downtown Chicago is much like losing oneself in paradise (Wiggers, 1997)."

Please post your builing information (architectural history and geology) and a picture of your building.  Thanks!
