==Old Dearborn Bank Building==
Situated at the intersection of East Lake Street and North Wabash Avenue,〔 the Old Dearborn Bank Building was constructed between 1926 and 1928 with ornate medieval and mythological terra-cotta decoration that was typical of movie palaces that were its contemporaries. The neoclassical architecture designed building is one of only two Rapp and Rapp buildings designed as an office building.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=203 North Wabash )〕 Soon after the Old Dearborn Bank opened in 1928, it was acquired and its parent company was liquidated in the United States' Great Depression.〔 The building, which is 27 stories high,〔 was designated a Chicago Landmark on June 4, 2003.〔 The light brown brick building with a steel structure includes 25 floors above ground and two below.〔
The owners of the building defaulted on a $9 million loan from John Hancock Life Insurance resulting in the acquisition of the loan (and thus the property) for an undisclosed amount by Urban Street Properties LLC in April 2010. The building had been acquired by the previous owners for $9.5 million in 2001.
