Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Built in 1921, this stunning Art Deco jewel was once the heart of Chicago’s booming mail system. Today, it’s been transformed into a unique multi-use hub that houses some of the city’s most remarkable event spaces.
- The Historic Lobby is certain to elicit “wows” as guests enter the impressive two-story space, which boasts huge windows, a gold-leaf ceiling, chic original light fixtures, and marble walls that soar to a dizzying 38-foot height.
- Other cool venues include The Vault, with its vintage speakeasy vibe, the Telegram Lounge, where you’ll find bocce lane, pool table, and east-facing views of the river, and The Meadow, Chicago’s largest rooftop green space.
