The Tribune tower architecture is lovely but what I love to see are the pieces of stone from so many other places all over the world. Ancient pieces of well known places are all over the first floor exterior. More

Chicago's 1923 neo-Gothic skyscraper is visible from Michigan Ave. Situated at a plaza along the Chicago River there are no building to impede your seeing this marvelous tower from nearly a century ago. Radio station WGN (World's Greatest Newspaper) broadcast from a streetfront studio ajacent to Pioneer Court. Up close the building is studded with artifacts from buildings around the... More

Of all the buildings I saw in Chicago, the Tribune tower was the only one that compelled me to go back several times. I just found the bits and pieces of historical sites around the world stuck to its wall amazing. I really took time to go around the building and studied each one. Its like going around the world...

The Chicago Tribune is an integral part of Chicago. The Gothic building itself is an archtectural gem. The collection of pieces of buildings and monuments from around the world that are displayed on it's outder walls is exceptional. A worthwhile stop for sure. More

Can't add much to the other reviews as they pretty much covered everything (gothic building with lots... More

It was interesting to see pieces of other places in the world. For example, a Butter Tower Cathedral of Notre Dame, Rouen, France and a piece of the World Trade... More

When you see all the bricks in the building it is very impressive. The building inside you can't get into but it is average and drab. I have been in it many times. More

It surprises me how many folks don't know about this man made wonder. When I was in Chicago this May with a friend I brought her to see the beautiful gothic building and all the stones and building bits that are inlayed into the building with the places saying where they are from. I hadn't been there in quite some... More

On Michigan, across from the Wrigley Bldg. is this peculiar and wonderful building. You can often see a talk-show host on the air from a picture window off the sidewalk. Walk around the outside of the building to see small pieces of stone from landmarks around the world. There's even a piece of moon rock in one of the windows... More
