Dedicated to an era long gone featuring architectural photographs of houses, hotels, apartment and office buildings, civic institutions and more...many of which are no longer standing.

Well, this one couldn't be more interesting
Hmmmmm? An office building with a gable roof, overhanging eaves and dormers? Odd is more appropriate.
"At the peak of the Monroe Building is a two-story, 23,500-square-foot penthouse available to a single tenant. This airy loft once housed the offices of artists and architects including Frank Lloyd Wright. Today it offers all the amenities of a modern office, including a private elevator between floors, plus a feature rare in today's commercial architecture: skylights."
