503 ft. The Carbide and Carbon building is a beautiful 1929 Art Deco tower covered in dark green terra cotta and adorned with a gold terra cotta leaf at the pinnacle. It is rumored that the architects, the Burnham Brothers, intended the building to resemble a bottle of champagne. It's easily one of Chicago's most attractive buildings, a point not lost on Kazakh director Bekmambetov, who shot the opening scene to his Hollywood blockbuster, ''Wanted'', right up at the gold pinnacle.
