This 11-story building, with its rusticated red granite base, was the country’s largest office building and a precursor to modern skyscrapers when it was completed in 1888 by Burnham and Root. Its stunning light court was redesigned in 1907 by Frank Lloyd Wright, who added a grand staircase and hanging light fixtures, both of which carry his signature circle-in-square motif.
