/\ Is topsy-turvy day here already?

Anywho I've never seen a tower climb so quickly in Chicago as Vista is and she might top out before they deliver her glass! So impressed._.

teohwp85, that second photo really shows how much depth there is to the Streeterville skyline now. That has to be my favorite picture of that part of the city I've ever seen. Amazing!

@Kumdogmillionaire (lmao can't believe I just typed that out)

It's a beautiful photograph. It's a great example of the perfect proportions and scale of Chicago's skyline. It's like the perfect Sim City skyline

Funny, I did not know that image was upside down until just now, viewing it on my laptop. I took it and posted it from my phone. It views right side up on my phone.

Fixed

Indeed

Although, I'm a bit partial to Cities:Skylines these days!

Shots of Vista from the CAF river boat tour yesterday afternoon (first time ever for me!)

I was shooting a project in River North, but given the parameters of the shoot, had to burn a couple minutes to get the exact shot I wanted to create for my client. Luckily, those slow, wide orbits brought me right over Vista.

It may not be the tallest, but pictures like this really show how much of a beast Aon is.

Maybe the glass will make the shape more angular, but the curves are looking much more smooth and rounded than I expected.

Wow, gorgeous photos!

Vista is looking amazing. I can't believe that they still have 30+ stories to go. This tower is going to be just beastly when complete!
