  2. The Taxi garage on Clark at Argyle, the one that some joker recently painted over all the beautiful terra cotta. Famous in an earlier life as home of the "Rage" nightclub where Cher performed in the late '90's. Or was it Grace Jones...?

  3. This is the New Clark Garage, 5006 N. Clark Street. It was featured on Chicago Tonight on Wednesday, September 1st in a segment of "Hidden Chicago." http://www.wttw.com/main.taf?p=42,8,80,11,6,1

  4. Curses on "Hidden Chicago"! UU took that photo three weeks ago and had no idea we were piggybacking.

    Qwerty and Lyda are correct. Back in 1928, the building was home to the Argyle Clark Garage; hence, the little wheels of terra cotta.

    Bragging rights to Lyda and Qwerty. Hope the little wheels weren't painted over, as Qwerty mentioned had happened to this building recently.
