Wrigley Building

Downtown, Chicago

A Preview

"This is the Wrigley Building, and it's here because a man who made his fortune selling chewing gum wanted you to NEVER forget about it. William Wrigley Junior built this in nineteen twenty-one, right at the corner where Michigan Avenue crosses the Chicago River. Prime real estate. Maximum visibility. The building isn't just white — it's aggressively white."
