Before leaving Chicago, I had to make sure I stood on the bridge over the Chicago River and took in the city views that I love so much. Looking east from the Michigan Avenue bridge, I can see the building I lived in all those years ago right in the center of the photo and I can admire all the towers that have sprung up east of it.
Standing at the same intersection and looking west, I was struck by how a once favorite view has been blighted by just five malicious letters.
So, I just stepped a few feet to the south to get a more appealing view. It's missing the river but at least the blight is gone.
