A "Chicago window" consists of a large fixed window flanked by two smaller windows with movable sashes. All are the same height. The three windows may be within a flat wall or may be arranged as a projecting bay window. They are common in Chicago's commercial architecture built around 1880-1930, particularly downtown office buildings.
