It will be the tallest building west of Chicago, according to Charles Luckman, architect. -- To be known as the 333 West Sixth Street Building, it will stand on the site of the Downtown Paramount Theater Building which was built 40 years ago by the late showman Sid Grauman. Demolition of the theater will begin next month and will take six months to complete. -- The skyscraper, to be constructed by the Guy F. Atkinson Co., will be completed in the fall of 1962." -- Examiner clipping attached to verso, dated 9 August 1960.
