Wrigley Building Blue Hour...

Storm clouds break up over the Wrigley Building and the Chicago river on a beautiful November evening. The first air conditioned office building in Chicago, construction on the Wrigley Building started in 1920, when there were no major office buildings north of the Chicago River and the Michigan Avenue Bridge. The 30 story south tower was completed in 1921, stands 425ft high, and houses the iconic clock at the top that has faces pointing in all four directions. The North tower is 21 stories and is connected to the south tower by two bridge spans, one on the 3rd floor and one on the 14th floor. The buildings design was inspired by the Giralda tower of Seville's Cathedral and is clad in glazed terra-cotta, which provides its iconic gleaming white facade.
