Fate of endangered State Street historic buildings still hangs in the balance as feds weigh security needs
"Preservation Chicago is part of a development team, including architects, engineers and finance experts, proposing a national archive center in the State Street complex, a solution that, unlike apartments or a hotel, could meet all the GSA’s security protocols, Miller said."

@Chicago_History CTA says it's the L. Enough said. El is NYC. And the retail store inside 111 N State St is currently Macy's, which should not be confused with Marshall Field's which used to be there but was a different store. However, the building is still the Marshall Field & Company Building.
@Pres_Chicago@CrainsChicago If Macy's on State was converted back to the Marshall Field's brand, operated by both Macy's and Bloomingdale's! A-win-win-win for shoppers, citizens, and Macy's/Bloomingdale's stockholders.
@Pres_Chicago@CrainsChicago ... at the time Macy's acquired Field's, Marshall Field's brands/trade name is valued at $419M; Macy's/Bloomingdale's trade names valued at $377M; & combined value of all other MayCo Dept Stores trade names valued at <$190M. Imagine the revival of all State Street & the Loop...2/

Footage of Chicago's Loop in 1927! Note Marshall Field & Co. on the left in the beginning. The firetruck is responding south on State St. & turns west on Washington St. Note Woolworth's not yet built. Thanks much to Jeff, aka @backwards_river, & @LynnBecker@ChiLoopAlliance
Note Marshall Field & Company Building on the left and the opening seconds. The firetruck is responding south on State Street and then turns right and goes west and Washington Street. Thanks so much, @backwards_river Jeff.
