Chicago buildings show the holiday spirit
Some of these pics were taken from a distance of 1.5 miles, so sorry for fuzziness.
 |
The Four Seasons/Bloomingdales, known by various addresses |
 |
The Fordham, Superior St. |
 |
The world-famous Mancow Merchandise Mart (the world's second-largest office building, after the Pentagon) |
 |
Sears Tower, the world's talled building (screw those stubby Malaysian things with the big masts) enclosing almost a half-billion square feet of floor space. The floors that are lit at the bottom of the pic are occupied by Goldman Sachs and always have the lights on, even at 9PM on a Sunday when these pics were taken. |
 |
The Bank One building |
 |
311 South Wacker Dr (Sears Tower at right) |
 |
A well-decorated crane (you're looking from above) |
 |
Some random building, maybe 181 Madison. Notice the reflection of the Sterling on 77 W Wacker (lower right) |
 |
The Sterling. Presumably these penthouses haven't sold yet. |
