Original title: State St & Marshall Fields
Location:108 N State St, Chicago, Illinois
I chose this because I liked the chaos. Street cars, wagons, cars, people, all working without lights of any kind. No one to direct traffic, it probably helps that everything moves slowly.Yet people just march across without looking anyway... just like today actually.
Anyway, the building on the right is Marshall Fields, a very large dept store from 1865, its still there today. Its color was easy - Tan. The street itself is known for shopping, so there are still people on it today. The buildings however are mostly gone, only one or two still stand in the background. All the pretty ones are gone.
