Watch This Space

I'll report more on this building later, but I couldn't resist showing something now. Here's a view of the Spertus Institute of Jewish Studies designed by Chicago architects Krueck & Sexton. The 10-story building with its dynamic, sculptural glass facade, nicely slips into the historic Michigan Avenue streetwall and stands on its own without apeing its classical neighbors or visually clashing with them. The new Spertus building is expected to be completed later this year. (photo by Lee Bey)
