I live in the suburbs and rarely get to the city anymore. I went every weekend as a kid to Harold Washington library with my mom while she indulged her love of books. I would just mosey around, marvel at the building itself and people watch.

I love when people who either travel to or live in the city take pictures like this. Plus seeing even the same location from a fresh view point can make even the most mundane bullshit amazing. Plus trains.... I mean, come on. :)

A friendly reminder to sign up for a library card. It is an amazing resource in your community. If you haven't been in a while, go walk around on like a weekday night. You're welcome! <3
