    I would argue that those are griffins and not dragons. The one on the left appears to have the head of an eagle due to the beak I believe I see. The one on the right appears to have the head of a lion, with elongated feathered ears. They both appear to have the forepaw of a lion holding the shield. Also, the wings appear to be the feathered wings of an eagle, not the scaled wings of a dragon. These are definitely the calling cards of a griffin.

    So to answer your question, I have no idea where it's located.

    No, but here's a hint - out of all the guesses so far, Uplift is the closest to this location.

    That's at the Sheridan Plaza Apartments at Sheridan and Wilson. They have gargoyles on the roof with near-identical faces.

    Ben and QRBNST you are both correct! It is the Sheridan Plaza Apartment building at Sheridan and Wilson.

    these are Griffins though... cause a griffin has the body of a lion and the head of a eagle... which made me think of the USPS building considering the eagle head... and its a griffin....
