Michigan Ave. (1928; Holabird & Roche/Holabird & Root) The 333 NORTH MICHIGAN BUILDING is one of the city's most outstanding Art Deco-style skyscrapers. It is one of four buildings surrounding the Michigan A venue Bridge that defines one of the city' s-and nation' s-finest urban spaces. The building's base is sheathed in polished granite, in shades of black and purple. Its upper stories, which are set back in dramatic fashion to correspond to the city's 1923 zoning ordinance, are clad in buff-colored limestone and dark terra cotta. The building's prominence is heightened by its unique site. Due to the jog of Michigan Avenue at the bridge, the building is visible the length of North Michigan Avenue, appearing to be located in the center of the street. ABOVE: The 333 North Michigan Building was one of the first skyscrapers to take advantage of the city's 1923 zoning ordinance, which encouraged the construction of buildings with setback towers. This photograph was taken from the cupola of the London Guarantee Building. COVER: A 1933 illustration, looking south on Michigan Avenue.

  • Catherina Gioino NYC's Gilded Age: Assignment 1 Brooks Brothers
    Catherina Gioino NYC’s Gilded Age: Assignment 1 Brooks Brothers’ Gloves Basic Description: These brown, machine made leather gloves are dated to have been made between 1870 and 1900. The gloves measure to be about 9.5 inches in length and 4.25 inches in length. (To be exact, one glove measures 9.5 inches by 4.38 inches, and the other measures 9.62 inches by 4.25 inches). The men’s gloves each have a vertical slit at the bottom near the wrist and has a button with the words “Brooks” and “Brothers” written across the top and bottom of the button, respectively. Next to the button on the other side of the slit of the glove, there is a loop that will allow the wearer to notch the button through the glove and thus tighten the glove. Despite being over a century old, use or wear is very minimal, with a light fade on one of the gloves and a torn corner on the other. The gloves are very stiff as a result of its age and therefore there are rips in the gloves that otherwise would not be there save for the leather composition. There is a large chunk of broken leather on the faded stain glove, in the shape of a triangle, with each side about ¼- ½ an inch. The stitching of the glove with the corner falling off is wearing off, particularly around the thumb, as is the same with the fore and middle fingers of the other glove. Production: Although not much is known about the Brooks Brothers or the gloves in particular, it can be said that the gloves were most likely made in the Brooks Brothers’ store on Catherine and Cherry Streets in New York City, which was the first Brooks Brothers1 store after Henry Sands Brooks opens the store on the Northeast corner of those streets.
