The Architecture Tour was great! I haven't thought that I would admire the architecture in this way. It brought me to the wonders of architecture. I realized that a building can be designed in a way that it matches its surroundings, for example the firm at 333 Wacker Drive and the 'Lake Point Tower'. They adapted to its geographic locations, followed the shape and the elements of the river.
I noticed the buildings also serve different functions such as commercial, industrial, residential and Car parks like the 'Marina Towers' and the 'River city apartment complex'. I could also experience different architectural styles. Each building has its own style. When we look at them as a whole, each contributes to the unique view of Chicago.
Gloria,
ReplyDeleteI love the design of the banner on your blog :-).
I am happy to read that the tour opened your mind to looking at Chicago's architecture in new ways and with new interest. I know that will not stop there. Now the seed has been planted, and you can discover even more in this cool city.
