The Tribune Tower
Possibly my favorite piece of architecture in the world. There isn't a square inch without some fascinating detail to see - they truly don't build them like this anymore. During the construction of the Tower at the request of Colonel McCormick (owner of the Tribune), reporters from around the world gathered rocks and architectural elements to add to the Tower. The tradition continues to this day, you can see a piece of the Berlin Wall and fragments from the World Trade Center amongst the ancient stones.
