Lost City: Chicago Edition: Hollander Storage
Shiver and cower before the hulking immensity of Hollander Storage in the Logan Square section of Chicago!
Ahem, excuse me: Hollander International Storage and Moving Company, Inc. The enterprise's full name, don't you know. This business was founded in 1888. And, as far as I can tell, this impressive, five-story, brown-brick building was erected around that time period.
The outfit is still in family hands. The website tells us, with due confidence, "Whether you require residential moving, business relocation, long-term storage, or something in between, it's a commitment four generations of the Hollander family has nurtured." Hey, they've got my attention.

Do you know about the Day Meyer Murray & Young building on Second avenue in Manhattan? A link to a NYTimes article from a couple of years ago is below. Might be worthy of a post.
