Detail: Krause Music Store by Louis Sullivan · Roark

Built in 1922-23, this Chicago School and Sullivanesque-style building was designed by William Presto and Louis Sullivan, and was the last significant commission by Louis Sullivan before his death.

Krause, whom lived in the building and operated the store until 1929, with Krause occupying — Krause Music Store
