    John Root Gravestone.
    The design of John Root's Gravestone reflects his life work as an architect. It was designed by fellow architects Charles B. Atwood and Jules Wegman. The Celtic inspired scroll work is a reflection of his design of the Rookery Building which many consider his greatest work. The arch design in the center is of a drawing he made while designing the entrance of the Phenix (Phoenix) Building.
