As part of the C.A.F. Open House, the University Club was open; the 9th floor windows provided this view.

Thanks, folks! It was a fun find while up on the 9th floor of the University Club (which fronts Michigan Ave)---seeing a totally new perspective on the sculpture! #10891360

I recently opened my e-mail and found an announcement from Better Photo that the month of November award winners were basking in the glory of finding their name beside their beautiful entry. CONGRATULATIONS!
