London Guarantee and Accident Building Collection
1921-1990
The London Guarantee and Accident Building occupies a prominent site on Michigan Avenue at the Chicago River, facing the Wrigley Building and the Tribune Tower. All three buildings were constructed in the early 1920s, when commercial Chicago stretched north across the river into previously residential land. The Guarantee Building collection consists of real estate documents, leases, and management reports generated during the development and initial leasing of the building.
