My god, are there any windows at that library?

Yes, but you have to look closely.

Ahh, but I have seen those concrete walls in the red glow of sunrise many a time.

Thanks for putting up my picture! The pictures in this blog are great.

Thanks for visiting Sara. Thanks for the great photo.

Rebecca, that's one of the nice things about concrete, it's such a neutral palette for all colors that fall on it.

Thanks for leaving a comment!

I love the initial feelings and thoughts I have looking at the red sign, then I look a little closer to figure out what is really is and I sort of get an "inner reveal" -- does that make sense?

I also love the sunrise although what was the architect thinking with millions of tons of concrete --uuuugh!

What I like most about both of these is that they are things that can be done for FREE in Chicago -- that is what I am all about -- enjoying the greatness of the city without having to spend a fortune.
