Capitol
Park, a small slice of green surrounded by handsome
buildings, is well hidden and out of the way for most
traffic today. Perhaps that is a factor in the continued
abandonment of such a fine building as the Farwell.
On
the outside the Farwell is a modest eight story "Chicago
School" office building. Inside its lobby was lavishly
decorated with Tiffany glass and its offices filled
with natural light. Now these features are hidden from
the public.

of these fine landmark.
