Pretty good video explaining what actually makes a good skyline. Spoiler alert, it’s not by cramming a bunch of supertalls into it.

If all old Chicago pictures are from the link, then they could have been taken in 1954 or 1955.

What is the new height of Willis Tower? Last month they installed a new antenna on top of Willis Tower. You can see the taller antenna in the photo.

The photos were taken in July 1965 and show a panoramic view from the observation deck of the Prudential Building. In one of the photos, you can see the demolition of the Morrison Hotel getting underway.
