Wainwright Building
38° 37′ 36″ N, 90° 11′ 31″ W
The historic Wainwright Building is actually located on Chestnut, between 7th and 8th.  The coordinates, according to the Maps I displayed, is for the intersection of 7th and Chestnut.  To be correct for the building, the coordinates should be adjusted about 50 fifty meter west.  Thanks

text: Korom says it wasn't even the first skyscraper by Sullivan. You'd have to come up with a somewhat arbitrary definition of "skyscraper" to make Wainwright the first. Dcoetzee 18:42, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

::Along with the Guaranty Building of Buffalo, New York, the Wainwright is among only two surviving Adler & Sullivan skyscrapers.

replies: text: I think the article should state one of only a few, or a number, if we have a reliable source to back one up, Adler and Sullivan skyscrapers. I think it's a stretch to call this one of two because of the Prudential (Guaranty) Building (Buffalo, New York) and the Auditorium Building. Of course, this depends on the definition of skyscraper we use, which is going to be highly subjective regardless. This is why I think it best to compromise on a less precise term, avoid prolonged discussion and go back to soaking in the mastery of Mr. Louis Henri Sullivan.
