Same, girl. Happy 90th Birthday to the one and only Shirley MacLaine!
Rest in Pieces to Foxtrot, the 7-11 for wealthy trust fund babies. I admit to popping into the one on Maple & Dearborn a few times. I guess I’ll have to go somewhere else for overpriced food & drink whenever I’m in the Gold Coast, which won’t be hard to do.
In honor of #EarthDay I wrote about some eco-friendly homes currently on market, from a double envelope design in Libertyville to a zero electric house in Evanston.

In case you missed my latest write-up yesterday, I’m sharing the link again. Creating beauty certainly doesn’t guarantee health or happiness, as you will read here about Louis Sullivan’s heartbreaking final years: chicagolandarchitecture.substack.com/p/the-final-ye…
This past Sunday marked 100 yrs since architect Louis Sullivan’s death at the age of 67. There are many theories as to what led to the decline of this architectural genius. I wrote a little something about his final years here: chicagolandarchitecture.substack.com/p/the-final-ye…
What a photo! Richard Nickel captured this great view of the elevated tracks going past the Builders Building (1927) at 222 N. LaSalle in 1960.
On this day in 1900, architect & acoustical engineering genius Dankmar Adler died at the age of 55. He lived in the middle of the Adler & Sullivan-designed row houses at 3541-45 South Ellis Ave (1885) located in Chicago's Bronzeville. The entire block was demolished in 1961.
Not sure if this is unpopular but my mom, a 3-time cancer survivor, is only alive today because she got a 2nd opinion every single time. Doctors were dismissive & didn’t take her concerns seriously. By going to one who did, her cancers were caught in time before they spread.

Most of Louis Sullivan’s work was torn down, but I do my part to teach visitors at the Charnley House about his architectural legacy. People leave knowing his name & having a greater appreciation for his work. It’s the least I can do. (Foglia Library, St. Ignatius College Prep)

@chi_geek As a Presto stan and frequent visitor to the Old Town School of Folk Music, I've spent a lot of time looking at that facade but never noticed the building date in the top ornament. Great catch and fascinating background on the Krause building.
The 1891 Garrick Theatre was a masterpiece designed by Louis Sullivan and Dankmar Adler. Before demolition in 1961, Richard Nickel photographed it. All three men died within 4 days of each other in mid-April, in different years. Revisit their story here: ow.ly/rmca50Rfsbl
See that big white line in the middle, the one where everything started to go to absolute shit? That's ronald fucking reagan. It is almost impossible to explain to people how badly reagan fucked this country. They don't believe it, because the gop has turned him into a saint.
Chicago’s land use policies are backwards. This building is being torn down for…another 4-story building. A block east, a massive parking lot takes up valuable space next to a train stop. No way we’ll meet our housing affordability/climate goals without shifting our priorities.
