More Chicago---I don't remember where this was, think it was near the "Bean". I loved the juxtaposition of the two.

Very nice image - I particularly like the use of light and shadow is this shot! Great work Marilyn!

The "new" in this case doesn't cut the mustard compared to that neat 1920s-30s building next door. Good eye!

The new is just a setting for that beautiful jewel! Love those old buildings!

Keen bisected capture, Maz! Futuristic on the left, eons ago on the right. Please check out my take on architecture in my today's posting of "A cultural gem #1!

Yeah, Marilyn, you were a wee bit north of the Bean probably, when you took this. I recognize that building. It has a slightly dark history as back during the great depression it was the favorite place for suicide-participants making their final jumps, or as they're more commonly known, concrete dives. The building itself is gorgeous, however, and you captured it in a way that lends a bit of mystery to it. The gold bits catching the sunlight are perfectly captured here. I love this shot!

Another building I didn't see! :D Are you sure we were together? Perhaps I was with that Marilyn clone I'm always so worried about. :~|

This is one of the best views of Chicago. That building is so cool; in the right light it looks like the drag queen of the architectural world. She's an old girl too. There used to be a cleaning service in there. I think it's still there, and so you'd always see these little ladies walking in and out of it and they would all crowd into little cars and go off to wherever they were going. It's funny to know that rental Maid service would be in a place like that. I love the gold colors and the stone. The geometry is really well captured too. She's kept herself up, and you caught her on a perfect, shiny day.
