Chicago Bahnhof

A recent business trip to Chicago yielded some free time...so what else can you do?

Chicago Grand Central Station


I believe this is the Hyatt Regency Headquarters? I like the curves, old building being reflected.

That's acutally Union Station and yes, that is the Hyatt. You were within 3 blocks of my loft, you should have stopped by. I shoot that area on my daily walks. You might have seen these before.

Looking up in the same room your first pic was shot.


The west side exterior of the same building.

Thanks...Union Station it is. I wish I had a few days...we only had a few hours and we were running around before our flight was going to leave. Thanks for these other shots, I like them. I also went to your site and really like this one you took in Chicago....where was this?

Thanks, that was fun to shoot. Every Friday there's a sidewalk market a few block south of Union Staion on Canal St. between Madison and Adams. It's run by a group of Africans (not sure what country but they have a ton of African art type things) but they hate photographers. I've been chased off with threats of bodily harm twice. I hope to go back with a non functioning point and shoot and push the limits to see if I can't draw out an assault charge and get the last laugh. With the dSLR I've had to back off for fear of getting the camera smashed.
