Altre informazioni:
The public lobby just inside the LaSalle Street entrance is an Art Deco jewel box. Dark marble walls and ceilings are covered with angular patterns, chevrons, female nudes and foliate patterns. Polished brass elevator doors, featuring low relief semi-nude females in the form of Greek goddesses, silently glide from closed to open and back again. Shiny metal and frosted glass wall sconces emerge bird-like from the wall planes. This is not just any lobby, this space is a superbly orchestrated and totally engaging experience." Stylish green-black marble walls accented by shiny cast bronze elevator doors feature full-figured female figures symbolizing Success and Reputation, the hallmark of the LaSalle Street corridor. Intricate peacock light bracket lamps, four feet high and strategically hung four feet above the floor, provide intimate lighting through the green glass in the peacock's tail. By focusing this light on the walls and ceiling, the interior beauty of the building is showcased."
