Lonely Planet review for Monadnock Building
Architecture buffs on a pilgrimage bow down first to the Monadnock Building, two buildings in one that depict a crucial juncture in skyscraper development. The north half is the older, traditional design from 1891 (with thick, load-bearing walls), while the south is the newer, mod half (with a metal frame that allows for jazzier-looking walls and bigger windows). See the difference?
