The Bean, Millennium Park, Chicago.
From the angle at which the women is taking the selfie, the Bean is totally out of the shot. This is totally about her!

A crazy day at work yesterday. Not just the normal before a holiday madness. Abrupt endings, new beginnings; lax rules, firm directives; a new chapter. And I’m even more grateful to work where I work. Integrity is not old-fashioned, after all.

One of many wandering wedding parties that were going around downtown Chicago to get their pictures taken.
Completed in 1969, the 60 storey Chase Tower is located at 10 South Dearborn Street in Downtown Chicago. Standing at 850 feet, it is the 11th tallest building in the city and tallest located inside the railway loop. The plaza is located at the geographical centre of Chicago's Loop.
The building has had two name changes, first opened as "First National Plaza", then "Bank One Tower" prior to their merger with Chase Bank. The principal tenants are Chase Bank and Exelon Corporation.
The distinctive design, with a wider base curving upwards was the brainchild of C.F. Murphy Associates and Perkins/Will.

When Chicago’s Picasso sculpture was unveiled in 1967, Columnist Mike Royko, wrote: "Interesting design, I’m sure. But the fact is, it has a long stupid face and looks like some giant insect that is about to eat a smaller, weaker insect." It s now considered a Chicago Landmark. I think this profile is the most interesting place to view it.

Built between 1960 and 1974, this Modern International-style complex was designed by Ludwig Mies van den Rohe to serve as federal offices, a federal courthouse, and downtown branch post office for Chicago. The buildings in the complex include the 42-story 562 foot (171 meter) tall Kluczynski Federal Building, the 27-story 384 foot (117 meter) tall Everett McKinley Dirksen United States Courthouse, and the one-story Loop United States Post Office, which surround a plaza that features a large Alexander Calder sculpture known as The Flamingo, which was installed in 1974. The buildings are clad in Miesian curtain walls with ribbed mullions and metal spandrels, all painted black, ribbon windows, open floor plates with steel columns, low-slope roofs, pilotis made up of open colonnades at the base of each tower, which surround the lobbies of each building, which feature glass exterior cladding and granite-clad vertical circulation cores and granite floors, which extend outside the buildings. The Federal Center is one of several complexes of buildings designed by Mies van den Rohe in Chicago, and today continues to house multiple federal offices, post office, and the city’s federal courts.
