This is my #3 photo for the 100 Strangers Project.

 

So, his name is Simon. We were both walking down Washington Street in downtown Chicago, USA, when I asked him if I could take his picture. He asked, "Why?" And, when he did, I noticed an accent. After I told him about the project he agreed to the photo. I asked if he was from Chicago. He said he was from London only visiting Chicago for a few days.

 

I asked about his work and he mentioned that he works for Virgin-Atlantic...which I thought was waaaaaay cool. And, to get some personal information about him, I asked if he had a favorite book or magazine. He said no, but enjoys reading biographies.

 

I love his haircut and hair color in this photo.

 

Thanks to Simon for allowing a stranger in his life, if only for a few minutes. And, for more information about the project, please visit www.100strangers.com

The original concept for Marshall Field's suburban stores was to have common architectural elements and an overall stylistic feel between them and the flagship store on State Street. The Oak Park store is, today, a Borders. This lamp is now unused and perched above a weakly-used window display.

I LOVE all the old details like this one still hanging around. :D

You know that Marshall Field's will be changing over soon when they begin to have constant sales.

 

This is the Marshall Field's located downtown St Paul, which is an anchor of the Minnesota World Trade Center.

 

We can thank Macy's and Wal-Mart and other elitists for the corporate take-over of America.

There seems to be a cool clock on every corner of the loop. Sometimes more than one at a given intersection. This is the Grand Daddy... and still keeps great time.

You can really see the reflection if you view it large and black. Click below!

The New York suits renamed it Macys, but to we native Chicagoans it will always be Marshall Field & Company.

The Wedgwood Christmas tree in the Walnut Room at Macy's (which I will continue to call Marshall Field's) on State St. in Chicago. The photo doesn't do it justice. It was quite lovely.
