The art is from the terminal at Midway, the scar is from something unfortunate.
I wanted a friend of mine in Knoxville to see the clarity in the newest version of Google Earth, comparing the old house next door in 2004 and the monstrosity that is there now. Note the house across the street with the blue tarp on the rooftop, that would have been late July. Natives here would recall an incredible hour of wind and rain just around 4 PM on a Friday night.

One of the few times I actually saved photos that would actually mean something in later years. I'm taking the photo from el train running over Wabash, but the building was on Michigan. Used to be a brewery a hundreds years back. Both these photos are from the 80s when the stretch between Wabash and Michigan might well have been farmland. Now its all condos. Long before that happened, the castle--already partly crumbled by time--was replaced by a block long building with some sort of antennae on top.
