We were walking really fast, a bike cop was kicking people out, I guess that explains the orange barricades, I couldn't resist, had to break the law a lil bit to come up with this eye candy, hah.
Speaking of the white building, my friend and I both commented that it needs murals or something, the white is boring imo, doesn't look bad, but, the Riverwalk, is anything but plain. I can't wait till everything is completed, but most of all, how River North is developed.

So funny you posted about the cop kicking people out. There was an article in yesterday's paper saying that the best way to see what was going on was via the web, and that they didn't want people wandering through the construction site!
You're a scofflaw! 
Thanks for the great pics. |

I don't think that bike cop was to happy, every few minutes a heard of cars would park, people hopping off, having there way with the barricades and wandering down onto the River.

Hee! But really, try to keep people out, right? It's a public area, plus it was the weekend, so it's not like they were doing demolition or something.

What about a nice hardy ivy crawling up the side of the building? It would really bring a nice shot of color to the space...

Ivy wouldn't look bad but I think a art mural would look better.
