It's really refreshing to see Chicago from an aerial PoV, since I'm always on ground scurrying like a rat amidst the tall buildings. You never really see just how amazing the architecture is until you're either in the air or in the suburbs and you see the skyscraper landscape.
Btw, the Starbucks underneath the red building (I think it's Aon) has really cute baristas.
@asd36f I think it's Wrigley, since the flight seems to be going North by the lake (I think the CTA stop right by it is Addison on red). The tall, black triangle building's also right by the lake, standing very close to Lake Shore drive.
Ugghhh if only cleveland took advantage of their lakefront like chicago did. Chicago really did it right and is one of the most beautiful cities ive ever been to. I really hope cleveland continues to grow like how chicago did. if only that damn recession never happened
If u have not been to Chicago before, save up the money and come. U should come in the summer though, cause our winters be hella cold. But if you do come come in sumer time, and coe to the Taste of Chicago. the food is awesome.
@ChIcAnO2111 I always see cleveland as a mini new york i dont know why. architecture maybe? Chicago is incredible but cleveland will always be my home
Got bed bugs?Ten most plagues cities according to USA Today: 1.New York 2.Cincinnati 3.Detroit 4.CHICAGO 5.Philadelphia 6.Denver 7.Washington 8.Los Angeles 9.Boston 10.San Francisco
I love this city. the epitome of civilization and urban planning at it's finest. it's probably is the last great BIG American city. we don't build like this anymore. I would like to see more aerial videos of Chicago especially a much closer view of the much denser downtown area.
@kanaltube I can do that next time for sure. We might be headed back there this spring to update our stock video. Anyone have any ideas for cool shots/locations? This would be helpful...Thanks for all the feedback everyone!
@jahnsmikey I never will call it the WIllis Tower. It is Sears Tower and no one is going to correct me whenever I get back there to visit. Willis Tower sounds stupid. They may have changed hands but I am not about to change what it always had been known as. The british own that building now from what I heard.
@rbsvy91368 No one in Chicago even refers it to the Willis tower, even though were suppose to, we still call it the Sears Tower, because thats what it's been for a long time. Willis Tower... that don't even sound catchy like Sears Tower. So I agree with u, I will never call it the Willis Tower.
@Basim650 And also are you refering to the downtown area are the city as a whole. I don't know if you've actually been to LA but LA's skyline sucks along with having the 2nd worst behind Tampa downtown area I have ever seen. Downtown LA is like one big homeless shelter and is nothing to brag about trust me. It's the rest of the LA area that makes the city special because the city proper actually sucks.
L.A. skyline looks suckish because it's spread out. There are a lot of buildings, but they're spread out all over the city so the main cluster of buildings is unimpressive. You're right though, L.A. is all about the suburbs.
@Basim650 I have a hard time believing that one and what exactly do you consider a high rise, because compared to Chicago, Toronto's skyline looks rather unimpresive nice but in no was as beautiful as Chicago.
Toronto has a tremendous swath of shorter highrise apartment and condo buildings through the city and surrounding suburbs. I would not be surprised if metro Toronto *technically* has more "highrises" than metro Chicago, depending on the definition. Still, the CBDs don't compare. Chicago's is much larger and more dynamic.
Don't get me wrong. Toronto is a great city and it has grown dramatically in the last two decades. It's just not nearly as great as world class cities like Chicago.
@soulerflare7 Actually at the moment Toronto has a population of 5.5 million plus more i don't even know and Toronto has the second largest amount of skyscrapers in north America(2000) losing only to north America so unless Chicago has a population of 11 million or over 2000 sky scrapers Toronto is bigger
@Jman67ify Actually Toronto has a metropolitan population of about 5.5 million and Chicago has a metropolitan population of about 9.7 million.Maybe not double the size but pretty big difference.Any retard knows there are more highrises in Chicago than toronto.I think 26Deacon is right you are a prime suspect of abusing methamphetamines
@Jman67ify dont get me wrong Toronto is a cool city but its a smaller Chicago. they're still sister cities tho so no hard feelings. i got much love from Chicago to Toronto.
@Jman67ify The population of Chicago is close to 10 million (9.7) and growing. The fastest growing county in the United States is a suburban county of Chicago(Kane County) and honestly within 20 years the population should be at 11 million.
