Michigan Avenue in Chicagos Loop

Buy Diazepam Online 5Mg Michigan Avenue in Chicago’s Loop

see url Though I don’t have the urban stamina to live in Chicago – I lived on the near North Side for three years in the late 70s and know that to be true – I love visiting the city a few times each year, preferably every season.

https://traffordhistory.org/lookingback/t6lrfg4 On our winter visit, we explored Michigan Avenue and Millennium Park. I took this photograph standing on the stone stairway that leads into the Art Institute, shooting north up the avenue. The snow cover and chilly temperature added to the overall experience.

https://vbmotorworld.com/944tt1cm2z5 I like how only part of the diamond top of the Smurfit-Stone Building is snow covered. I love that building, and I love its name. I always think I’m going to see little blue cartoon characters hanging around the lobby, but no. So far there have been no Papa Smurf sightings!

    see url They missed an opportunity. The building could have been blue. 🙂 Too bad.

    get link That is an interesting building and a great shot! I didn’t know there was a Smurfit Stone building. Smurfit is in bankruptcy now and perhaps the diamond will change hands.
