The Old Post Office
The 1921 Art Deco structure designed by Graham, Anderson, Probst & White spans three city blocks and has been turned into a mixed-use space, including a rooftop park, stunning event space, fitness center, food hall, an extension of the Chicago Riverwalk, and offices.
Nearly $1 billion was spent restoring, replacing, replicating and cleaning significant architectural features and readying the 2.8 million-square-foot limestone structure. Design giant Gensler, which oversaw the rehabilitation, was careful to preserve historic elements, such as original marble and spiral mail chutes, while modernizing the building with elements like green space and natural light.
