Chicago: The Dark Knight vs. Mr. Freeze

While visiting the fam in Morton Grove for Hanukkah, I went on a late night vigilante drive-by photoshoot...

From Columbus...


One Museum Park West...


Legacy and Trump...


Going north on Michigan Ave...


Trump on the left...


Wrigley's red/green crown is much classier than the former practice of bathing the entire building in green light...




Fireproof Water Tower...


Please, Mr. Ambulance driver...




Gold Coast...




The Clare is back there...


That Great Street...


Blah 37...




Witty...


300 N. LaSalle...


Stay-Unbuilt Suites


McDonald Trump...


Heading south down LaSalle...


Toward the Board of Trade...


Where's the Joker's 18-wheeler?


Bonus daytime pics killing time before my delayed flight...

Shure-ly you can't be serious...


Newish residential building on Peterson...


Hollywood...




Lincoln Park...


Heading south on Clark...








Elysian Fields...




Super Dooper 110...










Elitist...


353 N. Clark...










Age of Aquarius from the Clark Street Bridge...

I agree! My home state looks great, but it's sure warmer here.

Great set. Many of these photos have such a cool gloomy vibe--very atmospheric. And Dark Knight-esque, too.
