[edit] Rationale for fair use in Roanoke Building

I (User:TonyTheTiger) believe that the use of this image to illustrate the old Chicago Board of Trade Building in this article is fair use under U.S. copyright law because:

• It is used solely for the purpose of illustrating the building
• This articles would be deficient without an illustration of this building
• No freely licensed alternative is available for this purpose
• The image is of low resolution and so does not diminish the copyright holder's ability to profit from images of this artwork
