Gives off a real southern vibe, like Atlanta or Charlotte.

BP Bridge wouldn't have been there either just to emphasize how much has changed

Question for forumers: any idea Why am i unable to see some pictures that are posted?

I can't see what Steely Dan just posted, but I can see BonoboZill4's picture. Any ideas? I'm using Google Chrome.

yeah, i didn't have the time to attempt to take the bridge out.

still, the skyline change alone is quite staggering.

Nor the Art Institute expansion. Which I think is all that can be seen from that view.

Then there is 1050 W Van Buren pretty close which is supposed to be 21 floors with 222 units

The developers of a planned 47-story condo tower across Lake Shore Drive from DuSable Harbor will launch sales this week.

The 363 condos at the glassy tower called Cirrus range from the mid-$400,000s to over $4 million, according to Tom Weeks, executive general manager for Lendlease in Chicago, which is developing it with partner Magellan Development.

Cirrus is one of three towers planned for a site at the far eastern edge of the 28-acre Lakeshore East neighborhood. The developers plan to start construction on two of them, Cirrus and a 40-story, 503-apartment tower called Cascade, this summer, according to Tom Weeks, Weeks said.

Notable: Summer start date! Dropped the 300-room hotel in favor more residential units. (also, this is buildings K/L and J only)
