The Rookery

In the story · Ness's headquarters; the final scene

Eliot Ness, a young agent of the Treasury sent to bring down Capone, works out of this office building: its exterior plays the police headquarters. The film also ends here, as Ness walks out for the last time and heads down LaSalle Street. Only the exterior was used.
