Close to the nature reserve and either on the edge of, or within, the green belt depending on who you ask, this entire new suburb is being built. It's odd to see it happening, though it has of course happened many times in the UK (Skem, Kirkby, Croxteth, etc). This is on a smaller scale, being a suburb rather than a town.
The tenements that they're building reminded me a lot of Edinburgh's New Town area. What impressed me was that despite the fact that they're being erected at the same time, by the same contractors, and undoubtedly to the same design, they've taken the time to specify different bricks on each of the buildings, giving it a bit more of an organic feel.
Not a difficult thing to do, but most UK developers wouldn't bother.

I made myself go out in the middle of the day today for a walk, because a couple of days ago I realized that I hadn't left the apartment in more than 36 hours, and that seemed unwise.
So here you go. Winter in Chicago. It'll do.
I took my Nikon for a walk down to Village Gate. I was completely disappointed by the lack of inspiration I got there. These bricks and vines caught my eye on the walk home. I love the unusual contrast between the red mortar and the grey bricks. I don't think I've ever seen a building with the colors switched like this.
