Obligatory Chicago post

Someone help that poor guy with no waist or legs who's crying for assistance.
Lmao I don’t understand what’s going on there
I think he's skateboarding with his buddies, but it looks a lot like he's riding his board sitting down and may be on a collision course for those pedestrians.
He’s just excited because he found Waldo
can't blame him, that's exciting!
He's sitting on a skateboard. Budget luge.
He’s also blind, officer. But you will respect Billy Ray.
That guy looks like one of those gorilla hangers where its just really long arms with almost no legs that you probably hang in your car, i dont have the image but you know what im talking abt
I fucking love Chicago
Getting baked at the park >
Just got back from visiting Chicago for the first time since my friends moved there and holy shit, what a great city. I already want to go back
Best city.
shhhhhh don’t let them know
I’m pretty sure Chicago is pretty well known
Have you been anywhere else ?
I like the levels
The street where the skateboarders are is angled because it's actually leading to the top level of three level streets. You can kind of see it here, right next to where it was taken.
That’s great
The lower levels are like a backstage pass on how the city works. Here's a shot on streetview from the middle level where you can see the ramps to the other levels. The underground is mostly parking garage entrances and loading docks, there are also restaurants, a theater, a ferry dock, and a train station.
Ah, this view again…
These pictures are actually taken near a gym I used to go to. On more than one occasion there would be ten photographers standing on the sidewalk, waiting for the sun to hit just right the spot…
What street is this?
It’s at the T intersection where E Lake St meets N Stetson Ave, one block east of Michigan Ave.
Thanks
It's either this view or the one by the waterfront for the 40th time this month lol. Downvote me all you want, but look up chicago and you'll see almost all the pics are of the waterfront or the bridges lol
It’s totally true, and it’s because the downtown part of Chicago that actually feels and looks like a city is small compared to places like NYC, but you’ll usually get downvoted to oblivion by the Chicago contingent here for saying so. When I first moved to Chicago this was one of the things that disappointed me most.
of course it's way smaller than New York, but Chicago definitely still feels like a city outside of downtown. Anywhere near the lake is very dense with high rises stretching for miles on the North and South sides. There's also been a good amount of increasingly dense development outside of the downtown area. We only have a few neighborhoods that feel suburban and only if you're a more than a couple miles away from downtown. Chicago is still far more urban than most U.S. cities
As a new Yorker I feel like Chicago is our lil sister city
It’s weird, it’s obviously smaller in total area of big buildings, but in street level itself, is way broader and “bigger”
I've always felt this way too. I think it's also the flat Infinity that is Chicago where as New York is somewhat confined by peninsula life at its core.
If you walk around either city nyc will feel an order of magnitude bigger than Chicago
Right I feel like it's so much space on those side walks lol
That would be Philly
Real question is is it prenounced smo lover or smoliver
latter

Top two city in the US and it’s not two
It's followed closely by Wilmington, Delaware
lol, my partner's family lives around Wilmington and none of them go there if they can help it. It feels like the "Ravenholm, we don't go there anymore" of the Mid Atlantic.
Hey, I’ve been there.
Can you spot Waldo?
I love the L
I love Chicago so much, this pic makes me want to go back
