Urban Wilderness
I started this blog on a whim after discovering scoutingny.com. I enjoy experiencing and capturing the subtle details of a city like Chicago. It's the random occurrences and abnormal circumstances that arise my curiosity, and it is those which I am sharing here.
I’m surprised this classic is even still for rent
The Chicago St. drawbridge gear house is the only one I’ve seen open to the public.
I wonder what the history is behind this abandoned block all painted the same color…
An abandon construction project left draped in misery.
Train-yard with a message.
So yes on this one I used the CrossProcess app to give it the extra look. And, err, expect to see more of it in the future..
Something about this building caught my interest. I wonder if it was once used by trains.
This view from the train platform at Merchandise Mart always makes me think of city catacombs or something of that sort. There has been construction going on here for years.
Southbound brown run 406 pulls into Sedgwick station. Pretty standard CTA shot, but something compelled me to include it.
What is with the artwork on this elevator shaft? It looks to me like somebodys scribbles on the blueprint got misinterpreted as sculpture!
Stricken with a terribly poor cellphone camera, this blurry up-rezzed picture is the best shot I could get of this peculiar garden scene.
The jolly ‘ol Santa Express pulling into Sedgwick station.
Well it’s in St. Louis but that’s ok. It’s the Anheuser-Busch brewery.
A bizarre display of some lorem ipsum. Clever.
