The Tribune Tower is a 470 feet tall, 36 floor neo-Gothic skyscraper located in Chicago. Built between 1923 and 1925, the international design competition for the tower became a historic event in 20th century architecture. The tower’s main features are the octagonal tower rising to a spidery crowning silhouette and the ornate 3 story arched entryway that contains depictions from Aesop’s fables. Embedded in the exterior walls are stones from well known buildings around the world.
