Chicago Board of Trade

The Chicago Board of Trade is one of the most recognized buildings in the Loop, anchoring the south end of the LaSalle Street financial district. Come on this Lunchtime Tour to learn about the history of this important institution that was founded in 1848 and see the three buildings that make up the Board of Trade today. Enjoy the exuberant exterior and lobby of the 1930 Holabird & Root Art Deco building and compare it with the two additions to the south and east, completed in 1982 (Murphy/Jahn) and 1997 (Fujikawa, Johnson). Take advantage of this opportunity to see the trading floors in action, as well as the 12th floor atrium that bridges the Art Deco and postmoden buildings.
