Open House Chicago, the Chicago Architecture Center’s free annual event, returns next weekend, unlocking the doors to over 200 sites.
This year's event features 30 new locations, including the Auditorium Building Downtown and the Hilliard Towers Apartments at 30 W. Cermak Road.
Some old favorites return, such as the Fine Arts Building, and Wintrust’s aptly named Grand Banking Hall, a place so Greek Revival it makes me want to slip on a toga and deposit a few drachmas up in there.
Author's summary: Open House Chicago unlocks over 200 sites for free next weekend.
