Hey all,
Over the last month or so I’ve started taking pictures of all of the
interesting buildings in my suburban Chicago area. I’m taking these photos
for several reasons but most importantly I’ve taken them for you, the
community. My hope is that this new gallery will fill the reference void and
provide tons of ideas.

Hey all,
Well I’ve been at it again. The other day I visited Geneva and St. Charles
Illinois and took some pictures for your viewing pleasure. Most notable of the
photos are 2 theaters. The Geneva Theater was featured in the recent movie “Road
to Perdition” and Arcada theatre “St. Charles”, which has a very rich history in
both motion picture and live theater. There are multiple photos of both theaters
including close-ups. Other interesting buildings include the bank of Geneva,
restored limestone buildings from the 1840’s, odd shots of fire escapes, a dam,
a bridge, plenty of bars, an old coal power plant, and many other visually
interesting structures.
You can read more about the theaters here
