PALAr1AL OFFICE BUILDINGS.
The board of trade people
will not only have palatial
of commerce when their new
building is completed, but elegant Office
accommodations as well. They will, of
course, leave their present quarters, which
center around the present building on
LaSalle and Washington streets, and get
as near as possible to the new. To prepare
for this several new blocks will soon be
under way. A syndicate of heavy opera
tors, among whom are Amour, Kent and
Bentley, have the plans prepared for
palatial Office building, to be Immediately
erected south Of the new board of trade
building. Next to the board of trade
building it will be the largest

most favorably with its gigantic neighbor,
both in size and beauty of design. The
structure will extend from Pacific avenue
on the east to Sherman street on the west,
175 feet front on Van Buren, street, and
143 feet on each of the other streets, to
thirty feet court between its northern
boundary and the board of trade. The
plans contemplate nine-story building of
no ordinary pretensions. The architec-
ture will be in modern gothic style. like
that Of the board OF trade, but differently
treated as an entirely independent struc-
ture. 1t will, however, harmonic with the
other, the stories ranging in height on
level with the floors of the Office portion of
the boards building, and will connect with
it by bridges over the court at alternate
floors. The exterior is designed for walls
OF stone Or brick, stone being the material
which will probably be decided upon. The
style is plain, but with more architectural
outline than many of our high modern
buildings. The main entrance will
be on Van Buren, street, at the center
front, and there will be similar ones on
Sherman street and Pacific avenue. They
will lead into corridors sixteen feet wide.
connecting with large passage way from
the court to the board of trade. These en-
frances, with frontices and polished gran
tie columns will be two stories in height,
surmounted by stone balconies. The three
principal fronts will be divided into five
parts each. The corners and center psvill-
ions will be topped out with more prom
inence than the intermediate spaces.
The center front on Van Buren, street
will be the most prominent
feature in the building and very artistical-
ly proportional in details. It will stand
200 feet above the street grade, and the
general average height of the building
will be 154 feet, as in the Office part of the
board of trade building. The cornices are
designed in terra Gotta, treated boldly and
tastefully, giving varied and pleasing
sky line. The ground floor. one step above
the sidewalk. will have four large Offices
suited to banks or commission business.
These will be seventy two feet square and
approached either from the streets or
inside corridors, which pass through the
center of the building each way. At the
intersection of these corridors will be
large, double fights of stairs and four
elevators of extra size, running to the top
of the structure.
Another new structure will be erected on
the southwest corner of jackson and Sher-
man streets, just west of the board OF
trade building-an eight story and base.

Will occupy 100 feet of frontage on
Sherman street, and will contain at
least $50 Offices of extra large
dimensions adopted to the use of heavy
firms. The plan is not yet definitely de-
cided upon except that its general contour
will be after the model bankers buildings
erected at New York.
