Yale Building

[2] The Yale Apartments also possesses a rare interior atrium, ringed with galleries and topped by a glass-and-metal skylight.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 5, 1998, and later designated a Chicago Landmark on April 9, 2003.

In the late 1930s/early 1940s, the empty building was purchased and the interior gutted and converted to studio, 1 and 2 bedroom apartments.

One top floor apartment had the addition of a staircase up to a rooftop room referred to as the penthouse.
