Chicago's Famous Buildings

The fifth edition of Chicago's Famous Buildings covers more than a decade of extraordinary new architecture and takes a fresh look back at the city's classical legacy of Adler, Sullivan, Burnham, Root, Wright, and Mies van der Rohe. Chicago's Famous Buildings also includes expanded sections on the city's future and the development of its diverse neighborhoods and maps to serve as a walking guide. A glossary of architectural terms, an extensive index, and more than sixty new photographs of both old and new buildings bring this guide completely up-to-date.
