Chicago Cultural Center


Chicago Cultural Center, originally uploaded by aimos325.

This is the old public library and now it's the Cultural Center.
Gorgeous building. Around the base of the dome reads: "Books are the
legacies that a great genius leaves to mankind which are delivered
down from generation to generation as presents to the posterity of
those who are yet unborn. - Addison" Fun fact: the dome is the
largest Tiffany dome in the world.

Wow, I didn't know that fun fact. You must have googled it.

I did! I was looking for the quote so I didn't have to type it myself.
