Thank you Stephan! Isn't that blue-topped building in the foreground before Navy Pier the old Playboy Building? Navy Pier is now widely touted as the #1 tourist attraction in all of Illinois.

Interesting pictures. Do you have any that are just of the water tower? I always thought it was sort of pretty - as buildings go.

Wow, Paul. Congratulations on climbing 1625 stairs without stopping and passing many other climbers. That was demonstrating some Olympic athlete aerobic capacity. Wow. (It deserved two “wows”)😊 Loved the view from the top.
Thank you Joe! They're saying online the record is in the 10-minute area. The last time I did this, I was 26:55, so getting away from the computer of late seems to be paying off.

Thank you Kathy! I was reminded Sunday morning it's now been a few years since being down around the Hancock Tower and the Water Tower. I'll want the evening temps to improve, but I did make a mental note to get back from some evening shots. Here's something old.

Thank you ejfin, Elliott! The pocket camera isn't much more than the phone size and travels along easily.

Excellent photographs Paul and thank you for doing that. When I first started reading your narrative I considered the climb might be on the outside of the building. I am glad it was on the inside and still an ordeal I can imagine.

I like the night lighting!

Thanks Dennis! It's been a while since I've been a tough guy outside. The gear check to the start line included a few minutes in the 30F temps going around the corner from one building to the next. I was dressed for an indoor climb, not outdoors.

Fun set, both photos and narration, Paul! Stay fit, you realize the need when you get to my age.
