July 3, 200717 yr Update on The Ascent The rest from Saturday: http://www.hydrobond.net/index/2007.07.02/index.html
July 3, 200717 yr Man, I forgot all about this thread. Everyone's sending in some great images. rofl @ quimbob's recent pic and rando's niece pic
July 4, 200717 yr You should have the entire picture in color...it's kind of creepy looking right now.
July 4, 200717 yr I wish there was still a Skyline in Georgetown KY :( I want some Uncle Rando right now! Oh... never mind.
July 5, 200717 yr Cool. I was just friends a few weeks ago about how things used to look before the redid the flats. There used to be access to a tunnel I believe ran under the river to the other side. It was a little to the rght of where the guy in the picture is standing. I used to be so scared in the winter when driving down St. Claire hill that that I would end up in the river.
July 7, 200717 yr ahhhh...Even in reflection, she looks beautiful. https://www.instagram.com/cle_and_beyond/https://www.instagram.com/jbkaufer/
July 19, 200717 yr ^ Your balcony must be an all right kind of place. Here's Mount Hood, from a recent westward road trip.
July 19, 200717 yr It looks like Golden Corral. So now I have you to blame for my sudden outburst. I spit tea on my keyboard.
July 19, 200717 yr Minus the dull light on the right :( fine then, its sucks take your crap elsewhere!
July 19, 200717 yr Here's Mount Hood, from a recent westward road trip. Splendid view. I can't imagine what it would be like to live someplace like that. I think Seicer's photo of the Roebling Bridge works best with that streetlight out. Had it been working at full intensity, it would have created a foreground glare that would have washed out a lot of the detail.
July 19, 200717 yr ^I agree...I think that it would be even better if the second streetlight (on the right) was out as well. Fantastic shot though seicer...too bad I had to take off early that night.
July 19, 200717 yr hah I wondered if you would pick up if it was from that night or not. Too bad it started raining soon after taking the photo, washing away most of the fog.
July 25, 200717 yr I was going through some old pics one of my uncles took over his lifetime & thought you guys might like these pics of Chicago from the late 50s. Maybe someone knows what street it is ?
July 25, 200717 yr State Street - I can see the Marshall Fields clock! ... and the Chicago and State - Lake Theatres in the foreground.
July 25, 200717 yr The topic of Chicago was breached. A picture of CNA Plaza I took last weekend. More Pictures Here.
July 25, 200717 yr For some reason the red color of that building disturbs me...especially when viewed with the rest of the skyline. It just throws things off.
July 25, 200717 yr hydrobond , nice photo thread, you got a picture of my office building! The tower across from the watertower is the "park hyatt - park tower" building. the lower portion is the Park Hyatt the the portion right below the crown is the Park Tower Condos.
July 25, 200717 yr hydrobond , nice photo thread... Agreed...that photo of the Millennium Park Concert Pavilion is wonderful.
July 25, 200717 yr Thanks for the comments, guys. I was only in Chicago for a couple of hours, and some of that time was spent at Giordano's for some very excellent Chicago pizza. Parking is way too expensive in that town.
July 26, 200717 yr ^That's why they have mass transit everywhere buddy :) Finding a park and ride style lot would have been more of a hassle than paying for parking. I went up with three other friends, so once you take into account the combined price of mass transit for the four of us, parking may have actually been cheaper, at least for the level of convenience a car provides.
July 26, 200717 yr Oh, if you're taking a trip to Chicago with four people, you definitely need a car. If nothing else, for the simple fact that the more people you're with, the harder it is to get anything done! Which means you need to get places faster to make up for everyone's bull****ing around! Don't get me started! Stop staring at the artifacts on the Chicago Tribune wall!!! We got stuff to do damnit!
July 28, 200717 yr there's something to be said about the hideousness of 1960s light poles.... Awe man, 1960's light posts are sweet. Here's Euclid Avenue's.
July 28, 200717 yr Nice. They remind me of the lights from the movie Dune. Not sure why I remember that little detail.
July 28, 200717 yr Did they do an underground utility burial around that time? That looks so... uniform and nice, but at the same time, I hate the lights :P At least period-style lighting is making a comeback.
July 29, 200717 yr <img src="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f119/carzonmind/Canon%20Rebel%20XTi%20Pics/abaondonedhousesusquehannahealth.jpg"> One of the few houses left out of a three block radius awaiting demolition to make way for Susquehanna Health System's new campus in Williamsport..
