Saint Gabriel Catholic Church in the South Loop carries an unusual credit line: Burnham and Root, the partnership of John Wellborn Root and Daniel Burnham that ranks among the most historically significant architectural firms to work in Chicago. The firm built its reputation on office towers and exposition work, so a parish church commission stands out as a rarer type of project for them.
