Zodiacal Reliefs - Chicago, IL, USA - Signs of Zodiac on Waymarking.com

The Smithsonian database:

identifies the following categories of figures: Emblem -- Zodiac, Figure female -- Nude, Figure female -- Full length, Figure male -- Full length, Object -- Foliage. Not bad, since there is no other specific listing that I could locate. I would add the three reliefs for Diana, Atlas and Helios and expand the title of the entry to include "Greek Deities."

In 1999/2000 the original art deco McGraw Hill building was torn down to make way for an improved shopping site plus hotel. There was such a hue & cry that the developers agreed to save the reliefs and attached them to the new structure, preserving the look of the original building. See (visit link) for more information.
