Wednesday Walk - Commute Walk

Here's a typical commute for this #wednesdaywalk by @tattoodjay

This is the typical morning view as the doors open from the train station. Swarms of office drones tumble out racing towards their open office cubicles.

Our new office space moved to the financial area where all the tallest buildings are. Here you can see some steam coming out of the Willis Tower.

My building is on the lower left.

Just about a block away is the Chicago River where the architectural tour takes tourists and explains each of the buildings they pass.

Off in the distance is Chinatown, then just a bit further is murderopolis aka South Chicago. Don't forget to bring a flack jacket when going there lol.

Here's a building just across the river from Union Station with a map on the side showing the Chicago river and its location in red on the map. The architect took the concept very literally on this project.

Now for some strange modern art just at the base of the Willis Tower. This is a high tourist cluster area as everyone wants to wait three hours in line to go up to the skydeck for one photo lol.

Here's the tallest building in Chicago. I still refer to it as the Sears Tower but just a few years ago it was bought and renamed to Willis Tower.

Here's the glorious view I have from my office. I call it the pigeon alleway. All day long you can see them flying and landing on fire escapes.

Now I made it into the office. I'm usually the first one here because of my train schedule and most the lights aren't even on yet except for these.

Now in the evening I made it back home and took another walk around the peaceful lake. A much more relaxing walk than speeding around in the rat race downtown.

That's all for now. Thanks for looking :-)
