The Home Insurance Building was a skyscraper that stood in Chicago from 1885 to its demolition in 1931. Originally ten stories and 138 ft (42.1 m) tall, it was designed by William Le Baron Jenney in 1884 and completed the next year.
“In 1931, the Home Insurance Building was razed to pave the path for the monumental Field Building, now recognized as 135 S. La Salle Street. At the time, the Field Building claimed the title of the largest office building in the city.

The building's vast expanses of windows, interrupted only by minimal bands of terra cotta, gave it a light, weightless appearance that set it apart from its blocky, earthbound contemporaries.
