In the game
The Art Deco tower closing the end of LaSalle Street, with its statue of Ceres on top, becomes the Chicago Commerce Building.
History in brief
Finished in 1930, it was Chicago’s tallest building until 1965. The aluminium statue of Ceres, Roman goddess of grain, is faceless because the sculptor thought no one would ever see her face that high up.
The place today
Still a working exchange and office building. The best view is looking south down LaSalle Street.
