Richard J. Daley Center

 

Architect: C.F. Murphy Associates

Date: 1965

Style: International

Address: 50 West Washington Street

Height: 648 ft. (32 Floors)

Exterior: Exposed Corten Steel

Structural

Material: Steel

Program: Court House and Government Office

 

The structural columns of the Richard J. Daley Center are 87 feet apart, which is a relatively large span. Towards the top of the columns, the width diminishes as the floors require less support.

For four years, from 1965 to 1969, the Daley Center was the tallest building in Chicago. In 2001, it received historical status, only 36 years after its completion. The building has a small height to floor ratio, due to the large floor to floor distance of 18 feet.

There is something about the old steel water towers that has drawn my attention. I'm not exactly sure what it is.

More steel structure on the pillars. It's coming along!

A dense lattice of steel transmission towers fills the frame in stark black and white, their crisscrossing girders and insulator strings forming an intricate geometric web against a flat, overcast sky. Thick bundles of power lines sag between the towers, strung with ceramic insulators that catch what little light filters through the clouds. A tall, narrow pole rises through the center of the composition, cutting a clean vertical line through the tangle of horizontal and diagonal beams surrounding it. Below the main structures, smaller transformers and switching equipment cluster together, their boxy silhouettes partially obscured by the maze of supporting scaffolding. A low building bearing a partially visible utility company sign sits at the base of the substation, grounding the towering ironwork in its industrial function. Stripped of color, the image emphasizes pure form and structure, transforming the utilitarian machinery of the power grid into an almost abstract study of line, shadow, and repetition.
