Actually this is part one of two. There are a lot of buildings. On Monday M. Lady and her parents were kind enough to allow me to accompany them on their river boat tour of Chicago architecture.
These dudes were duding it up under Lake Shore Drive.
This is the construction site of a new Trump building. It's going to be really really tall. Like seriously.
The black box is the IBM building...maybe? Maybe not. I could take a minute and look it up...but I'm not. And next to it one of two identical towers.
Our guide, a very exuberant man, told us that this site in front of you is the only place in the world where all forms of transportation meet. There's below ground subway, there's boat, there's above ground subway, cars on the bridge, feet on the bridge, hoofs (hooves?) on the bridge, and to the right there are rail road tracks and then it's directly beneath a flight path to O'Hare. He challenged us to find another place. It'd be funny if I found another place then demanded unlimited free Chicago architecture boat tours. Perhaps I could be a tour guide!
