I could not pass up the doors downtown this week. All of these are on my favorite type of buildings, the older ones. No stop to check the actual dates because I was on my way to the theater. I do not want to be that person.

We have many of these buildings, 2 on each bridge. The place for the person who operates opening the bridge to allow tall ships to pass through.




This is a fiberglass sculpture by Jean Dubuffet. I chose to include this because the openings could serve as doors and you can walk through this. It’s also not that old. Unveiled in 1984, so I threw in a ringer this week.

Kathy, these are marvelous. I’m fascinated with the bridge-tender’s room. This is Chicago (the small print at the end of the post)? Hugs on the wing.

Thanks, I grew up in Chicago so I thought everyone had these bridges. Now that I am such the world traveler (HA) I really appreciate them.

I love walking around Chicago. The last time I was there, I took tins of photos (I think I might have been that guy) but I kept up with the tour. I like the tiny house on the bridge, as well as the other doors. I always like seeing a revolving door.

Thanks so much for your kind words. Those tiny spaces along with bridges that open are not everywhere and they certainly add a fun touch.
