A unique rounded entrance marks one of the city's true architectural gems, the last major structure designed by famed architect Louis Sullivan.

We stopped at this 1899 building during a Chicago Architecture Foundation walking tour, and, as an architecture buff, I was blown away by the structure's elaborate cast-iron ornamentation. It surrounds the large display windows of the lower two floors and is especially elegant at the entrance located at the corner of South State and East Madison streets. The design incorporates plant and geometric shapes in a delicate, precise pattern. I took an even closer look at the work inside the entrance before crossing the street for a better overall view of the effect. From there I could see how much the bottom levels differ from the rest of the 12 stories. The plain upper floors of the commercial building display a terra cotta facade with many windows made possible because of steel-frame construction. For decades, the structure was known as the Carson, Pirie, Scott and Company Building, after the department store housed there for decades. It moved out in 2007 and now bears the name of the Sullivan Center, after the famous architect responsible for the building's original design. A City Target currently occupies the first two floors.

While walking along Chicago’s Magnificent Mile one day last week, I stopped at Nordstrom’s on Michigan Avenue. It is so conveniently located, just about a block north of the Chicago River. It is easily accessible by public transportation. This is a beautiful store! Their shoe department is second to none as they have sizes which are often not available at other nearby stores. Nordstrom’s has a wide variety of merchandise of great quality. If you are looking for a gift for somebody, be sure to stop here. You will find just what you are looking for as their employees go out of their way to be helpful.

Ok, there’s every designer you could wish for at this Saks. The store is rather large. Though, all designers are well marked as to which floor they’re located. The salesperson are wonderful. The variety of cosmetic alone can keep you there for hours.

Macy correctly left the Marshall Field's plaques on the building, The Walnut room is a great place for lunch and still hosts the famous Christmas Tree, although it is now a big ad for Macy's. You can also eat at one of many chef owned casual/fast dining spots on the 7th floor and take pics of the tree from the observation area on the floor.
