"In Chicago they are not afraid to do things—when at last they do them. And what could be more appropriate than this union of Art and Industry. I don’t know that the people of Chicago think so—and I do know that they are trying to get rid of the Illinois Central tracks. But from the great terminal at one end of the lake front to the other there is a wonderful series of subjects, and this view from the Waiting Room of the Illinois Station is the most wonderful of all—yet it is only used as a sun parlor by people who never take the trains." J[oseph] P[ennell].
