^^ the Legacy, a new sleek & glassy condo tower in chicago, was built on a site previously occupied by several historic structures, but their facades were saved and reapplied to the new building such that is still looks like several old pre-war buildings at street level, with a modern shiny tower floating above. i'd post a pic, but the wabash elevated tracks make it a really hard relationship to capture in a photograph.
