Scenes from a Photostroll...

(photo by Lee Bey)

The old Chicago Sun-Times Building was too short to compete with its taller neighbors. And Trump Tower--the structure on the right that is replacing the Sun-Times, will be tall enough to overpower them. So for now and the next few months, we have parity at State and Wacker. Enjoy.

 

Above: The Marquette Building. I want to put on a fedora and a double-breasted 1940s suit and stride through these bronze revolving doors and flash my detective's badge.

 

Above: The Inland Steel Building. The more I think about it: It's the best-looking SOM building in Chicago.
