Views from the South Loop

Post by Demosthenes »

So I went out walking around after I got off work today. I wanted to get pictures of the One Light construction, and figured the best spot to view it was from the park on top of the garage. Once I got up there I realized I had to take more pictures :) Man the views from that rooftop park are amazing. Very peaceful place to hang out.

I wanted to try and get photos from the Jones pool, but of course it was closed. Could have gotten pics from right above the site.

Very nice pictures. The silver skies actually enhance the beauty of the silver skyscrapers. Thank you for posting.

I saw today that there were workers in the Jenkins Music building. I know that it's not really a building anymore, just a façade to a parking garage. But, they did take the opposite corner and build Arvest Bank there. Could they take part of the garage behind Jenkins and make retail space in the old façade again?

Yea if I'm not mistaken there is retail space in the ground floor of the Jenkins "building." I think I've seen it for lease. It looks like Power and Light is controlling the retail there, as it has the same kind of "placeholder" signs Cordish uses for their vacant space.
