In case you don’t know, Groupon is the hottest Internet startup company in 2010. From the looks of their building they are doing very well. The headquarters is located in an old Montgomery Ward building, just west of Chicago’s downtown.

These photos by Michael Wolf depict the central downtown area of the city of Chicago, which has recently undergone a surge in new construction. In these photos, the city looks transparent. The geometric aspects of the photos are amazing. They focus on the modern urban landscape in a state of flux. They also illustrate how modern life unfolds within an ever growing contemporary city.

The balconies of the Sears Tower in Chicago - not for people who have vertigo! (22 pics)

Posted in Pictures 6 Jul 2009   / 38624 views
The owners of the Sears Tower, the tallest skyscraper in the United States (Chicago), inaugurated last week four glass box viewing platforms. These balconies are suspended 1,353 feet (412 meters) in the air on the 103rd floor. They are 10ft high and 10ft wide and can hold 5 tons with their 1.5 inch thick glasses.
Really impressive and definitively something to try...

Business cards of Chicago gangs in 70-80’s (32 pics)

Each gang had its own history and so on.
Just look at their cards. Some are done with humor, others with a bandit "romanticism" touch - in short, the way it should be.
And on some cards it is even marked their musical preferences, as you can see below.
