This is one of my favorite pictures of all time. This picture was taken a year ago by a member of the Chicago Tribune. For those that don't know Chicago's skyline, the tower on the right is Trump Tower and the tower on the left is the Sears Tower. The Sears Tower recently had its name changed to the Willis Tower but in my mind it will always be the Sears Tower. For about 25 years the Sears Tower was the largest building in the world. It still is the tallest building in the United States. Trump tower is the 2nd tallest building in Chicago and for a year or two was the building with the world's highest residence above ground-level. This picture was taken during a gigantic storm. The Trump tower was turning their lights on for the first time. Trump tower was recently finished being built and that night was essentially their "opening" (even though at this time people were already living there.) The picture was accidentally taken. I think it is amazing, and honestly a once in a lifetime experience.
