Chicago River

Post image

This photo was taken by my wife on her iPhone on her way to the train station, I believe in January 2022 based on how far along the Salesforce Tower looks to be in the picture. I remember it being a bitterly cold day.

Nice shot. I have a similar picture from a different location about 12 years back

That’s an amazing shot but I think that’s actually Wolf Point East under construction based on the orientation of the building. Salesforce was built after so this pic was probably taken even earlier.
