Lee Bey: The Urban Observer

Well...not quite.

But I do appear on the Chicago Sun-Times website in this installment of reporter Mark Konkol's stellar "Real Chicago" series. Photographer Rich Hein, who my go-to guy for architectural photography when I was architecture critic there from 1996 to 2001, does the video work here. You'll note in the set-up that I talk about a few buildings that we never got around to discussing in the piece, but never mind. It was fun hanging out with the old gang and the package proves--once again--that the web has emerged as the place for coverage of architecture and urbanism.
