This photograph was shot from the third floor outdoor bar at the Chicago Loews Hotel in Streeterville, looking southwest to the famed London Guarantee & Accident Building on the south shore of the Chicago River at the intersection of Michigan and Wacker.  The bar, dubbed Streeterville Social, is a nice place to hang on a warm summer night.  We visited it after seeing Kathryn Bigelow's outstanding film, Detroit, at the nearby cineplex.  We were seated on a coach under a large umbrella.  The corn, pepper and mushroom flatbread, mussels, and watermelon feta salad were all excellent, as was the margarita.
