333 North Michigan

333 North Michigan is a 34-story Art Deco tower in Chicago's Loop district. The building shows polished granite at street level, with buff limestone and terra cotta covering the upper floors.

The tower was completed in 1928 by architects Holabird & Root and is one of four buildings that frame the Michigan Avenue Bridge. It was built on the site of the earlier Fort Dearborn, which served as a trading post for the early settlement.

The exterior features relief sculptures showing frontier settlers and Native Americans from the former Fort Dearborn that once stood here. These artworks tell the story of who was at this location before the building rose.

The building houses office spaces of varying sizes and connects directly to Illinois Center and Randolph Street Metra Station. Its central location makes it easy to reach by public transportation.

The building's narrow footprint allows it to be seen from both directions along the full length of North Michigan Avenue. This distinctive visibility makes it a helpful landmark for people walking through the area.
