January morning at an academic library of limestone brutalism.

Takes me back to when I was a University of Chicago student in 1970. Brutalist times!

In Chicago on January 30th, 2015, outside the Regenstein Library on the campus of the University of Chicago, designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and completed in 1970, on the north side of East 57th Street, east of South Ellis Avenue.
