The Auditorium Building combines an extensive theater space with hotel facilities through steel and reinforced concrete structural elements that support large interior spaces.
Constructed in 1889 by architectural firm Adler & Sullivan, the building introduced modern construction methods that transformed the possibilities for performance venues in America.
