Chicago - restaurant - Tiffany windows
 

A friend mentioned that she'd heard of a restaurant in Chicago where you can look out at the water (not sure if it's the lake or the river) through Tiffany windows.

This is a long shot, but does anyone know what restaurant this might be?

Well there's the Cultural Center which has unbelievable stained glass but I don't know of any restaurant. But check out the center. It's stunning if you like stained glass.

I don't know that one, sorry.

But if you are into architectural antiques, there is Gulliver's Restaurant in way north Chicago that has what they claim as the largest architectural antique collection in the midwest. Good food too!

The Walnut Room in what used to be Marshall Field's has Tiffany glass. Are you thinking of the huge Stained Glass and Tiffany Glass displays at Navy Pier?

You can see the water there- and there is a museum display of glass, stained glass, Tiffany long term on site as well.

But there is Tiffany glass, fixtures, lamps and bar "back" glass all over Chicago.

My Dad took a piece that was tossed into a garbage pile when they tore down one of the old Field's bars- back in the '70's. And even earlier when they widened the street and cut the fronts off of some of the bottom floors of scrappers- they tossed all the glass- broke it right out. My Dad's piece went into someone's window in Beverly. But they were tossing them in the garbage and breaking them on purpose- that's how common they were.
