👍💕♥️13lk Hi dear good morning 🌻 👋🏻 so beautiful sharing i enjoyed watching your video dear 👌🏻💗💕hope your dream becomes true & have a wonderful day 🌹 ♥️
Very useful videos, thank you!
Love it ! Thank you
The Home Insurance Building was just North of the red brick building on Adams and Lasalle. The red brick building you pointed out is another amazing skyscraper that could've been on this tour called the Rookery Building. I'm sure you know that. I'm just pointing it out for anybody interested. It's definitely worth visiting if you're doing this tour. The light court in the middle of the Rookery building was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright!
Jacob thank you so much for watching this one and sharing your tip!! I had planned to do a Lasalle tour similar to this one with all the amazing buildings, but this video just didn’t get the views. Maybe I’ll reconsider, because you’re absolutely right about the Rookery being a worthwhile spot!!
It’s sad that the early skyscrapers don’t get more attention. It’s a super important part of our history, but one that even Chicagoans neglect as evidenced by how many of these buildings were torn down. Though that also makes the ones that are still around all the more special and this is a truly unique stretch of them. I’m not sure it will happen because of the broken US relations with UNESCO, but these buildings deserve that recognition. I’m certainly gonna keep sharing the history as much as I can. Thanks for doing this tour even though it didn’t get the views! I’m sure someday people will recognize.
@@JacobKlippenstein I love your passion! Our tours are all about sharing the history and significance of these buildings, then and now!
