Originally seven stories
high, the building had only
five stories when it died. The
two floors directly over the (
Chicago river disappeared
with the raising of Wacker
drive in recent years.
The Lind block, as a young

and grocery store.
At the end of the 19th cen

The old Lind block build

of a neighboring building. The
Lind block escaped with only
smoke and water damage.
Cast iron supporting struc
