CHICAGO HAS A
"SHIMMY" BUILDING
IS STORIES HIGH
BY AssocIated Press

Chicago, May 2S.-,grhe city with the
ornamental front door" is the newest
sobriquet pinned on Chicago. 1t dates
largely from the erection, athwart the
new Michigan boulevard link" bridge,
of a great ornamental white office
building of IS stories, nicknamed be-
cause Of it's eccentric lines and unequal
angled appearance, the 'shimmy'
building.
The "'shimmy' building is the key
stone in the arch of the city's orna-
mental front door" Visible for many
miles, both from the harbor and from
north, south and west, it marks the
conveyance of the Chicago river, the
water gateway to Chicago, where Fort
Dearborn once stood, and the famous
boulevard that now connects the north
anG south sides of the city.
Fifty thousand automobiles, it is
conservatively estimated, pass the
"shimmy building" daily. 1t is not to
be wondered then, that the plans of
the Chicago plan commission under
takes to make this spot, favored by
traffic of land and water, the munich
pal beauty spot of the world. Embel-
listment of the bridgeheads, with
treatment in historical style, is the
first step authorized in this develop
ment Identification of the surround
ing property and of the river itself
will follow
