Demolition of City Hall No. 6, 1908
Photographer: Unknown
Taken: October 16, 1908
Caption: Demolition of City Hall No. 6, 1908
Additional Description: This image, courtesy of the Historic American Buildings Survey, shows the demolition of the sixth Chicago City Hall in October, 1908. Note at the very bottom of the picture on the right, a keystone is visible, very much similar to the one mounted on the marker's monument. Examination of the archival quality image (see link above) shows the keystone to be virtually identical to the keystone on the marker's monument, although the existence of more than one keystone of the same design should not be ruled out.
