The old Sun Times Building was grey. Unless you meant the Apparel Mart which has housed the Sun Times and other tennants since 2004ish.
I'm gonna go on record as saying in its original form the Mart's Apparel Center made more architectural sense as a brutalist styled expansion of the then filled to capacity Merchsndise Mart. The expression through massing and bulk reflected on the outside of the nearly windowless building the utilitarian power within. Not pretty but it at least had real theory behind it.
