Chicago Tribune in Chicago, Illinois

“Is one of those buildings that immediately stands out. The Gothic design feels bold and dramatic, especially compared to the surrounding modern skyline. Up close, the façade details are fascinating, and knowing the building incorporates stones from famous landmarks around the world adds another layer of interest. Its location on Michigan Avenue makes it easy to admire while walking, and it still carries a strong sense of history and presence. Even with the area being busy, the tower holds its own and feels timeless. A true architectural icon that rewards a slower look rather than just a quick”

“This is one of the most beautiful views of our stay. you can see real estate complexes of this city, which however does not lack it. At the start of the Millennium Mile, we walked across the Chicago River Bridge. The buildings around Michigan Avenue are the Chicago Tribune with its neo-Gothic tower just opposite the two buildings that make up the Wrigley Building. The view is beautiful!”

“It is such a beautiful piece of architecture. I only wish it wasn't planted next to the obnoxious TRUMP lettered building next to it, which, by the way, is also a beautiful building. Just the letters really ruin the skyline for me.”

“A very very interesting place! The outside wall of the building is decorated with different fragments of world-famous architectures. It’s a lot of fun to discover all the pieces that are embedded to the wall.”

“This is a beautiful, neo-gothic skyscraper that is an icon of Chicago’s skyline. This skyscraper is mesmerizing to look at due to its detailed architecture, color, and shape. This tower apparently has a beautiful lobby that you can go inside of, but I did it. This monument of architectural beauty has a nice public plaza in front of it with views of the Chicago River and the skyscrapers around it. I gave this skyscraper five stars because it is a stunning example of the beautiful architecture that Chicago has to offer.”

“Walking north from the DuSable Bridge, the Tribune Tower is truly captivating. If you’ve planned a tour with the Chicago Architecture Center, you’ll get a great understanding of its role in Chicago’s architectural history and its significance within the city’s overall landscape. Definitely worth a visit!”
