Midland Hotel
178 W. Adams St., Chicago
September 2002

I like this photo as both a “faded ad” for a defunct hotel (the Midland building is now the upscale W Hotel) and a view of the office tower just behind, 190 S. LaSalle Street, one of my favorite newer buildings downtown. The ad has subsequently been removed.- Pete Anderson
