Great photos, Jim! Mies has always been a favorite of mine. Be sure to check the photo labels, though: the one with the Tribune Tower on the left is not IBM/330 N. Wabash - it's the Equitable Bldg, 401 N. Michigan by SOM. Love your posts - keep up the great work!
Jason . . . thanks for the comments. I'm embarrassed that I put 401 N. Michigan in there with 330 N. Wabash. I didn't pay very close attention there! Taken at the same time . . . I just assumed they were part of the same scene. I know the difference . . . I do them both on the River Cruise (120 times last year). It shows that you haven't lost your touch, though. Thanks for checking in on the blog occasionally. It's a fun city to write about. I'm sure things are great back home. It must feel great to raise your family in God's country.
