Tribune Tower

The Tribune Tower is a 463-foot-tall, 36-floor neo-Gothic skyscraper located at 435 North Michigan Avenue in Chicago, Illinois, United States. The early 1920s international design competition for the tower became a historic event in 20th-century architecture. Built for Chicago Tribune owner Robert R. McCormick, since 2018 it has been converted into luxury residences and in 2023 won a Driehaus Prize for architectural preservation and adaptive reuse from Landmarks Illinois.The tower was the home of the Tribune, and the related Tribune Media, Tribune Broadcasting, and Tribune Publishing. WGN Radio originated broadcasts from the building until June 18, 2018. CNN's Chicago bureau was also located in the building. It is listed as a Chicago Landmark and is a contributing property to the Michigan–Wacker Historic District. Its predecessor, the first "Tribune Tower", had been built in 1868. It was destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871.
