The sky was flawlessly blue the other day when I snapped this photo! I love the Wrigley Building in downtown Chicago (its the old building with the clock adorning it). I also love/hate the juxtaposition of the modern buildings. What do you think?
A Canadian Perspective on Living in the Windy City!
Iconic. Beautiful.
Most definitely, David. Agreed! Cher xo <3
Gomme!
Gomme, gomme, John! Cher xo
Gum was a bit of a joke with a long since Ex in the early 80’s. We went to Toronto for a few days, days I can’t speak of here but wow…
Ah, gotcha! Cher xo
Nice post, Cher! Chicago’s architecture is wonderful in so many ways and the Wrigley Building is a key part of that.
Why thank you, Brett! I agree completely! The architecture here is the most diverse (yet collegial) I’ve seen anywhere. Cher xo
I’m still looking for the gum reference for it ;P
I think the Wrigley Building should have a big wrapper on the side, eh Andy? ;-P Cher xo
A giant one!! 😋
Of course! *Still looking for furniture to go with your lamp*!! Cher xo
Exactly 😁😁
Hee hee!
That’s where my father worked:)
Oh how cool!!! Cher xo
Great picture of one of the most-recognizable buildings in Chicago. Chicago might be the greatest city for architcture in the world, certainly in the United States.
Thank you, John! I absolutely agree; I don’t think I’ve ever seen a city with such magnificent (and diverse) architecture anywhere. Yet, it all works together, doesn’t it? Cher xo
One of my faves — you often make me nostalgic
Ah, bless! Well please let me know if there is a building you’d like me to take a picture of for you! Cher xo
Thanks — I might just take you up on that!
Absolutely!! Cher xo
I love this kind of building. Reminds me of the old movies. I am so looking forward to checking out Chicago in August!
It does, doesn’t it, Erika? It’s appeared in a lot of movies! YEAY! I can’t wait to meet you in person! Cher xo
Oh, me neither, Cher! I get so excited every time I think of it 😊😊
Yeay!!!! 🙂 🙂
I like the mix of old building and new building together. It makes subtly the point of how the city is never a finished thing; it runs backwards and forwards without limits too.
Love the mix.
I do too! Somehow it all just ‘works’, doesn’t it? Cher xo
