Open air atrium, or "Knowledge Walk", this central concourse is aligned along the primary South Bank cultural precinct axis.
I could only spend last Saturday at Open House Chicago (due to a trip to New Orleans . . . photos from there coming up next). It was a cloudy day, so the external views were obscured. So, I headed for some buildings with beautiful interiors including Graham, Anderson, Probst & White's 1927 Builders Building on LaSalle. This view is straight up, looking at the stained glass ceiling in the 4-story atrium lobby.
Atrium at Eastpoint Mall. Originally was Hutzlers Eastpoint location. One of the original anchors with Hochschild Kohn. Mall originally opened in 1956. After the store closed, it was converted into a food court with stores and doctors offices. Sears was built onto the side of the old Hutzlers.
The Kendeda Building's atrium showcases many principles of the Living Building Challenge. Mass timber and salvaged wood displace the need for more carbon intensive concrete and steel.
Staircases are inviting but the elevator is tucked away, out of site. This encourages physical activity by occupants. The ramp is in the center, directly adjacent to the stairs thereby ensuring that all people have similar experiences throughout the atrium.
Windows provide occupants with visual and physical connections to nature. Operable clerestory windows at the roof of the atrium provide ample daylight and natural ventilation.

Visit to Chicago on March 28, 2013. Macy's (formerly Marshall Field's) on State Street in downtown Chicago is a wonderful department store full of many interesting things. Not the least of the interesting sights at Macy's is the sheer audacity of the space. This is looking up from the main floor to a huge skylight in the ceiling.

The Lafayette Building and former First Presbyterian Church in South Bend are new on Indiana Landmarks' 10 Most Endangered in 2015. Learn more at www.indianalandmarks.org.
Two South Bend landmarks on the 10 Most Endangered list sit next door to one another, across the street from the city’s historic courthouses. The city ordered both structures sealed until multiple code violations are cured.
Last fall, when slate began cascading from the roof of the long-vacant former First Presbyterian, the out-of-state owner replaced the slate with a tar paper roof. This year, finally, installation of a new imitation slate roof began on the vacant, damaged landmark.
Pittsburgh architect J. P. Bailey—creator of courthouses and schools from the Midwest to Maine—designed the 1888 sandstone and limestone church in the Richardsonian Romanesque Revival style. Local industrialists J. M Studebaker and J.D. Oliver, who each covered a third of the cost, favored the style’s expression of solidity and permanence.
The Lafayette Building dates from 1901 and 1903, when it went from three to five stories. The understated Neoclassical exterior gives no hint of the graceful interior, lit by a five-story skylighted atrium. In addition to its deteriorated condition, the property’s delinquent tax bill tops $1 million.
“Indiana Landmarks linked the two sites as a 10 Most Endangered entry because we think each affects the fate of the other, and because we believe the solution may be a redevelopment that unites them,” says Todd Zeiger, director of the organization’s northern office.
