December 2007 -- France again!
April 2008 -- Hungary & Macedonia

Where it all began .. Chicago Architecture


The Monadnock Building displays the thick load-bearing masonery walls prevalent before the Chicago-based development of the steel-framed, concrete pier skyscraper in the late 1800s. On the right the Santa Fe Railway Exchange Building benefits from the steel frame to provide more window space and a decorated surface.
.
These pictures were taken on a recent tour I gave for some visiting friends. I am hoping to pull my architectural photos together into a tour of Chicago architecture -- one of these days:)

Monadnock/Railway Exchange
Beautiful Ohrid Lake
