Harry Weese
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Harry Weese (1915-1998) was an American architect. He built primarily in the modern architectural style, but integrated other styles as he felt appropriate for the project. He is most famous for having designed the Washington DC metro system. He was well known in Columbus, Indiana, and was the architect who "shaped Chicago’s skyline and the way the city thought about everything from the lakefront to its treasure-trove of historical buildings.” ("Harry Weese, Visionary Architect Known as 'Chicago's Conscience'." Chicago Tribune, 1 November 1988).
