Built in 1911-1912, this Classical Revival-style building was designed by Daniel H. Burnham and his successor firm of Graham, Anderson, Probst and White to replace the earlier Commercial National Bank Building a block away. The building was one of the last to be designed by Burnham prior to his death, and replaced another building designed by Burnham for the Commercial National Bank only five years prior, which had been outgrown by the bank after its merger with the Continental National Bank in 1910. The building stands 21 stories tall, and is clad in terra cotta with a doric colonnade at the base with fluted columns and pilasters with egg and dart trim at the capitals, a decorative entablature and cornice above the colonnade with the words “City National Bank and Trust Company” engraved into the architrave, one-over-one windows arranged into vertical columns with pilasters, decorative corbels, and recessed spandrel panels with decorative reliefs, a doric colonnade with fluted columns at the top of the building, and a low-slope roof enclosed by a parapet. The building’s upper floors surround a central light court that descends to a barrel vault roof that once soared above the banking floor, but after the building was gutted to become a hotel in 2007, the space below the roof now is a relatively mediocre and generic ballroom, with a floor having been added between the roof and the large atrium below, and the original banking hall having been downsized and had all its original details replaced with cheap-looking imitation finishes and elements that pale in comparison to the originals. Despite the unfortunate alterations to the interior that have stripped all character-defining features, the building managed to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007, and today serves as a hotel. Additionally, the building is a contributing structure in the West Loop–LaSalle Street Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013. The building is one of several structures along LaSalle Street that form a historic Skyscraper “Canyon” that terminates at the tallest structure along the street, the Board of Trade Building.
Montrose Brown sign. A little something to remind me of Houston (because there's a Montrose and a Loop there).

Elk Island National Park is located east of Edmonton, Alberta. It preserves a section of the Beaver Hills, which is an "island" in the Canadian Prairies ecosystem. Numerous lakes, grasslands and boreal forest are found in the Park. The Park is fully fenced and is the home to numerous animals, including elk, moose and a large bison herd.

Built in 1925-1930, this Art Deco-style skyscraper was designed by Holabird and Root for the Chicago Board of Trade, which was founded in 1848 as an exchange for merchants in the rapidly developing city of Chicago, and replaced an earlier building that stood on the same site from 1885 until 1929. The previous building was the tallest in the city of Chicago from 1885 until 1895, when structural issues forced the truncation of the clock tower, with the present building taking up that mantle upon its completion in 1930, standing 44 stories and 604 feet (184 meters) tall, being the city’s tallest building until the completion of the Richard J. Daley Center in 1965. The tower forms a visual terminus along the northern section of LaSalle Street, which shifts a half-block west at Jackson Boulevard, highlighting the building as viewed down the skyscraper canyon from the north.
The building gets smaller as it rises, with a tower at the south end of the historic building, two shorter wings extending to the north, and a six-story base that covers the entire half-block footprint of the building. The exterior of the building is clad in limestone, with polished granite cladding at the base, the words “Chicago Board of Trade” engraved above the central bays of the north facade, flanked by decorative sculptural reliefs of bulls, tall window bays on the base with glass and metal spandrels, metal trim at the windows, and a central light court above the sixth floor with a parapet featuring sculptural reliefs surrounding a clock at the front. Above the base, the building is U-shaped, with two wings that rise thirteen stories above the base with vertical columns of one-over-one double-hung windows in the central bays with recessed metal spandrel panels that rise from decorative carved relief panels at the base, mechanical penthouses flanking the central light court atop the roof of each wing, low-slope roofs enclosed by parapets, and metal fire escapes mounted to the east and west facades of the building. Above this rises the building’s main tower, which features multiple setbacks, tapering as it rises, metal spandrel panels between windows in the central bays, decorative pilasters, and a hipped roof clad in standing seam metal, and crowned with an aluminum statue of the Roman Goddess of Grain, Ceres, created by John H. Storrs, which has no facial features. The building was expanded to the south in 1980 with a 23-story Postmodern-style addition, which was designed by Helmut Jahn, and is clad in glass curtain walls with a hipped roof, limestone panels, and arcades on the east and west facades of the ground floor, which is connected via an elevated multi-story walkway to the adjacent 1995 five-story annex, designed by Fujikawa Johnson, which is similar in appearance to the 1980 addition. Inside, the building houses offices, trading floors, with an intact Art Deco-style multi-story lobby with glossy polished black and white marble wall cladding, brass screens, railings, and trim, and a large light fixture down the middle of the ceiling, which was once the largest light fixture in the world.
The building was designated a Chicago Landmark in 1977, and was both listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1978. The building has been modernized through a series of renovations, though it remains home to trading firms and offices, as well as the Chicago Board of Trade, one of the world's oldest futures and options exchanges, today known as CME Group after its merger with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange in 2007. The building is the tallest and most prominent of several structures along LaSalle Street that form a historic Skyscraper “Canyon” that terminates at the tallest structure along the street, the Board of Trade Building.

Built in 1926-1927, this Renaissance Revival-style skyscraper was designed by Burnham Brothers, with both architects being the sons of Daniel H. Burnham, and is also known as the Bankers Building. The building stands 41 stories and 476 feet (145 meters) tall. It features a granite and limestone base with decorative carved reliefs and large storefront openings and plate glass windows on the first two floors, with the upper two floors of the four-story base featuring vertical columns of windows with recessed metal spandrel panels, and flanked by decorative carved reliefs, with the parapet of the base featuring a stepped middle section with more relief and ornament. The stone trim extends to the fifth floor, where it mingles with the cream brick of the upper levels, and features heavy use of reliefs to demarcate the top of the compositional base of the building and the transition to the shaft, which comprises most of the building’s height, and is relatively unadorned with cream brick cladding, corner pillars and pilasters between window bays, with the massing of the upper portion of the building being H-shaped with light courts to the east and west on the lower portion of the tower, with the upper portion being thinner and rectangular, tapering with setbacks to the north and south towards the top. The building is one of many historic skyscrapers in the Chicago Loop, and remains in use as a commercial office building with retail space at the base.
