Harold Washington Library Center Sign

Washington Library SignJennifer Roche
The Harold Washington Public Library, which is located at 400 South State Street in Chicago, is one of my least favorite buildings in the city. I find its exterior architecture overwrought, and the interior design does such a poor job of providing its users with an intuitive lay-out that I think it's almost inexcusable. This sign suggests what I'm talking about.
