Video Thursday

I found this interesting seeing as how I was born in Chicago in 1949.



Holy crap this makes me feel old.

  3. Steven, how about the opening shot. That is now Millennium Park, and as they pan across the street, the spot where that billboard is, is where the Prudential Building now stands.

  4. OMG!... You're right! I thought that shot was from Monroe! Standard Oil and all those other buildings north of Randolph are still railroad tracks! Wow! I should head down and duplicate that opening shot...
