Wed, 25 Jan 2012 05:00:04 +0100 (Reuters) - The plans for the new Cheap Trick building and architectural renderings of what the streets around the new rezoned Motor Row historic district on South Michigan Avenue are seen in Chicago January 13, 2012. Music that went silent nearly 40 years ago on an historic stretch of Chicago's celebrated Michigan Avenue is poised to return, thanks to an unlikely mix of rock stars, politicians and real estate developers. Chicago has rezoned Motor Row - near Chess Studios, the famed "home of the electric blues" - as a live entertainment district, set to open in early 2013. Picture taken January 13, 2012.

Sat, 31 Dec 2011 03:30:02 +0100 (AP) - FILE - In this Oct. 18, 2011 file photo, Mexican architect Ricardo Legorreta speaks at a news conference in Tokyo, Japan. Mexico City's Camino Real hotel from 1968 is the architect best known work, but he also oversaw the remodeling of Los Angeles' Pershing Square in 1993. The hallmark of Legorreta's work is the use of color; he put a 10-story purple bell tower in the middle of Pershing Square. Mexico's Foreign Relations Department and National Arts Council said Legorreta, who was 80, died Friday, but did not give the cause of death. (AP Photo/Shizuo Kambayashi, File)
