Michigan Ave. streetwall endangered

Chicago's Michigan Avenue 'streetwall' named to list of nation's 11 most endangered places

This appears to be a complicated issue.

I love the streetwall. I took a Chicago Architecture Foundation tour of the street wall a few years ago. It was really interesting and informative. It's amazing how many details of those buildings I hadn't noticed before, even though I have driven and walked up and down Michigan Ave. countless times in my life. I highly recommend the tour if it's still available.
