Chicago Temple Building (Church on Top of a Skyscraper)
Church on top of a skyscraper?The Chicago Temple building houses the First United Methodist Church, which is Chicago’s oldest congregation. The main church occupies the first 3 floors. This top portion has something called the "Chapel in the Sky." The senior pastor lives up there, from what I've been told, and has a private balcony. Very interesting to see this on top of a skyscraper.It was the tallest building in Chicago when it opened in 1924, but the Chicago Board of Trade Building was built a tiny bit higher in 1930.
