Book Synopsis The Chicago Board of Trade Building by : Edward Keegan
Download or read book The Chicago Board of Trade Building written by Edward Keegan and published by Pomegranate Communications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chicago Board of Trade was established in 1848 to create a centralized trading market for grain and other agricultural products. It has been located at the center of the city's financial district since 1885, when it moved to a building designed by architect W. W. Boyington. By 1925, neighboring buildings were more impressive and provided more interior space; in 1927 the firm of Holabird & Roche was selected as the architect of a new building on the same site. Finished three years later by the successor firm of Holabird & Root, the limestone-clad Chicago Board of Trade Building came in at 609 feet tall--forty-five stories--in a dramatic Art Deco style that incorporated a series of setbacks culminating in a pyramidal roof topped with an aluminum statue of Ceres, the Roman goddess of agriculture. For twenty-five years the Chicago Board of Trade Building reigned as Chicago's tallest structure. Now seventy-five years old, it has undergone remodeling and restoration. In this most recent Building Book from the Chicago Architecture Foundation--joining The Reliance Building, The Auditorium Building, The Rookery, Marshall Field's, Sears Tower, and The Merchandise Mart--historical and modern photographs and informative text capture the exuberant spirit and present the fascinating history of this treasured landmark.

Download or read book Mysterious Chicago written by Adam Selzer and published by Skyhorse Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Chicago historian Adam Selzer, expert on all of the Windy City’s quirks and oddities, comes a compelling heavily researched anthology of the stories behind its most fascinating unsolved mysteries. To create this unique volume, Selzer has collected forty unsolved mysteries from the 1800s to modern day. He has poured through all newspaper, magazine, and book references to them, and consulted expert historians. Topics covered include who really started the great Chicago fire, who was the first “automobile murderer,” and even if there was actually a vampire slaying at Rose Hill cemetery. The result is both a colorful read to get lost in, a window to a world of curiosity and wonder, as well as a volume that separates fact from fiction—true crime from urban legend. Complementing the gripping stories Selzer presents are original images of the crime and its suspects as developed by its original investigators. Readers will marvel at how each character and crime were presented, and happily journey with Selzer as he presents all facts and theories presented at the time of the “crime” and uses modern hindsight to assemble the pieces.
