Found it! The start of Historic Route 66! Right at Michigan Avenue. |
There were a variety of ways to explore Michigan Avenue. Just like the Mustang--the bicycles were too big. Hate it when I can't reach the pedals. |
There was also the big Bus--too fast! |
I decided walking was best. Look at the wall of buildings that face Grant Park. |
The building with portals at the top floor is the Santa Fe Building, the home to the Chicago Architectural Foundation. |
There is a big model of the city in the atrium. |
Here are some of the books on Chicago in their shop. I really like the red one with the golden building on the cover! |
Next stop was a few doors down for lunch at the Cliff Dwellers Club (get it--the wall of buildings on Michigan Avenue is like a cliff!). |
Have a great view of Millennium Park. The silver Bean looks very small from here. See everyone playing in the water of the Crown Fountain? |
Another View. |
The building next door has lots of lion heads on it! |
Back at ground level I found a bit of Paris! One of Hector Guimard's Metro station entrances. |
I also found this powerful and grand Native American on a horse. Next stop the Auditorium Theater! |
Adler & Sullivan's Auditorium Theater--What a Building! |
The Grand Staircase. |
Great Ornament! |
More ornament! |
Cool Column! |
