Block 37 Proposal, Chicago, Illinois, Perspective View from Daley PlazaBlock 37, the parcel of land in the heart of Chicago’s Loop bordered by State, Randolph, Dearborn, and Washington Streets has stood idle for years in spite of numerous ideas for the construction of new buildings. The redevelopment of the block was originally conceived by Mayor Richard J. Daley in the 1970s to transform the site of old, inferior, low-rise buildings into new and larger buildings with more intensive uses in keeping with the downtown area. The site has been the object of several unsuccessful attempts at development over the years. Architect Helmut Jahn, working for the joint venture development company FJV, prepared several schemes for the site between 1983 and 1987. All of these plans envisioned a giant atrium that would permit continuous movement of pedestrians throughout the block. The developers’ failure to secure a anchor tenant for the development—along with delays by the City and the worsening economic situation—cast doom on the project.
Northwestern Terminal Tower, Chicago, Illinois, AxonometricAlthough the Northwestern Atrium Center (now Citigroup Center) meets the street as a cool, reflective waterfall of glass, this exuberant architectural rendering shows the building exploding from its foundations to expose the complex program of its base. Removed from its messy urban environment, the structure appears to float in an abstract grid, an example of Helmut Jahn’s creative exploration of the motifs, materials, and attitude of high-tech postmodern architecture. Unlike the heavy mechanics of other designers working in this vein, however, Jahn’s work evinces a touch of nostalgia for the delicate qualities of industrial architecture of the past. His Northwestern Center fuses a contemporary mirrored-glass facade with curves and articulation that recall Art Deco interiors and 19th-century iron-and-glass train sheds, an appropriate reference for this modern commuter train hub.

Located in São Paulo, Brazil, the building is an example of Brazilian modernist architecture, which gained international recognition for its unique blend of European ideas with the local climate and a strong focus on innovative use of concrete. Warchavchik is considered a pioneer of modern architecture in Brazil, with his other notable works including the Casa da Rua Santa Cruz, considered the country's first modernist residence.

Villa Bashkirtseff in NiceFrom 1871 to 1877, the Bashkirtseff family villa in Nice served as a setting for Marie’s early ambitions. Here, surrounded by the social life she adored, Marie immersed herself in private studies, driven by her vision of fame.
