LaSalle-Wacker Building, Art Deco high-rise building in Chicago, United States.
The LaSalle-Wacker Building stands 512 feet tall with 41 stories, featuring limestone and granite cladding at the intersection of LaSalle Street and Wacker Drive.
Constructed between 1929 and 1930 by architectural firm Holabird & Root, the building expanded from its original 37-story plan after acquiring additional adjacent land.
The structure incorporates geometric patterns and streamlined forms characteristic of 1930s American architecture, representing the vertical expansion of urban development.
The building contains 420,000 square feet of office space and includes 95 parking spaces, with major renovations completed in 1998 and 2005.
A beacon installed at the building's peak was visible from 200 miles away, while the current structure illuminates in cobalt blue light during nighttime.
