The repetition of windows is not only pleasing to the eye, it also provides a glimpse into the everyday lives of Chicago residents. Get your camera ready and capture this apartment tower as its illuminated by the bright, midday sunshine of the Windy City.

This image of the eastern Marina Tower was taken from London House Rooftop Bar, which is inside the London House Chicago Hotel. To get this perspective, I stood facing west on the public rooftop deck of the bar.
Once you enter the hotel, take the elevator to the rooftop bar and restaurant. From there, you can head out onto the deck where you'll see this view.
By subway:
- Closest station: State/Lake (via Green, Pink, Brown, Purple or Yellow Lines)
- Head east on E Lake St toward N Wabash Ave
- Turn left onto N Wabash Ave
- Slight right onto E Wacker Dr and the destination will be on your right
Address:
London House Rooftop Bar, 85 East Wacker Drive, Chicago, IL 60601
