A day for walking around and seeing things I had never seen before. Like this Art Deco beauty.
Evidentally the Chicago Auto Club was a very big deal back in the 30s, since this building was their HQ.
A bit of searching revealed that back in the 90s there was a plan to make this building into condos, but as of today, it's sad and empty.
I'd make a deal with Mr. Applegate to live there....
Jennifer (Jen's Photography) and I went into Chicago with her daughter for a visit. We went to China Town and then back up into the loop where we caught the end crowd of the St Patrick's Day Parade. I like this view of the city since it has some of the best looking architecture to shoot.
These two guys walked up, pulled down their pants and proceeded to have a fake-fight. It was late, I have no details.
This part of the Pedway looks a little more commercial, and a lot more populated. Maybe because it's not technically underground anymore.
Frederick Street being dug up again for the {many}eth time in 3 years.
This time, something to do with the Cooncil's white elephant tram scheme.
My brother and his wife were visiting and they really wanted take a walk through downtown Chicago. Here's a new twist on the Nuveen building (333 Wacker Drive)
From the Wacker website:
"A reversible plate for the toughest compaction jobs
The DPU 6055 offers the best compaction of various types of soil. It shows its true strength when working on semi-cohesive soils in particular. This reversible plate provides optimum performance along with a variable forward and reverse speed of up to 92 ft/min (28 m/min). Plus, the dual shaft exciter technology provides the maximum possible compaction depth in most types of soil."
