Red to Blue 1
The tunnel that connects the Blue Line to the Red Line “El.” I’ve never walked through this passageway when it didn’t smell like urine. That does not stop musicians from playing this public venue. The acoustics make one of more sought after public performance spots in Chicago. I like this photo better than the second one even though it’s out of focus.
Red to Blue
The tunnel, about a block long, that connects the Blue Line with the Red Line “El.” It’s an attractive structure, but smells like urine 24/7. You can usually find a musician, in this case, a young man with a five gallon plastic pickle bucket and drum sticks. The acoustics I’m told are outstanding.

If dogs played in the NFL.
I thought this was interesting sculpture for the top of a bus stop on in the middle of the city. Few people actually see it. Looks like a race to the death.

Modernist Master, Mies van der Rohe
This building and three more nearby are considered seminal works by Mies van der Rohe. The German native turned American citizen is widely considered one the most influential architects and designers. Criticized for boxy buildings, Mies often replied less is more. His work inspired a generation of architects and continues to influence post modern design.
