===Contexte del veinat===

 

 

Directly south across 58th Street from Robie House is the Charles M. Harper Center of the [[University of Chicago Booth School of Business]]. Designed by the Uruguayan-born architect [[Rafael Viñoly]] and completed in 2004, the building both respects the scale of the Robie House and contains elements that echo Wright's contributions to the vocabulary of modern architecture. “The massing was considered with that of the surrounding buildings of the campus and the neighborhood,” Viñoly said.<ref>[http://magazine.uchicago.edu/0410/features/gothic.shtml "Prairie Gothic," ''The University of Chicago Magazine'', vol. 97, no. 1, October 2004].

The entranceway terrace itself provides visitors with a panoramic view of the south elevation of the Robie House.<ref>[http://www.chicagomaroon.com/2005/5/10/new-gsbs-architect-vinoly-speaks-downtown Hassan S.
