Chicago Trump Tower

Here's a shot by me from the 77th floor,
More of my Trump shots here (I'm hosting the crane operator's shots there as well)

FWIW, I like Ken's pictures a lot better than mine, he's got an awesome view!

Another of mine from the pump platform 40 ft above the 85th floor (at the time, the top):

Welcome, jimojimo! The pictures are amazing! The view and the quality of the shots are outstanding. Thanks for posting the links!

You may also wish to post in the dedicated Trump Tower thread. More people will probably see it.

Holy sh***t - those are priceless shots. the quality of the shots, the vantage point, the eye of the shooters. And to top it off putting them up on SmugMug.


Quite a contribution here - ( Crane Series

Love the photos.

Especially the ones by Ken Derry of the hot blonde visiting the worksite.
(photos 77-80)

Is that Ivanka Trump, perhaps?

Beautiful. I need to stop by Chicago pretty soon. I haven't been there since the Trump started being built.
