when I was a kid in the 1940s, I rode the 'el' all over the place...fare was 4 cents so a real bargain :)

Chicago is a great city!

I pay the $75 dollar a month for unlimited use for the CTA.  that is 24 hours available to use all the time. To me that is a great deal. That's gas money alone if i were to own a car.

What is that massive building in the background as the train crosses the bridge?

[ChicaGoes]

I believe you are referring to the Merchandise Mart, the worlds largest commercial building.

Yep, it's the Merchandise Mart, designed by Graham, Anderson, Probst & White. They also designed the Wrigley Buildin, the Civic Opera House, and other important Chicago buildings.

As ChicaGoes says, it's still the largest commercial building in the world (having been built in the early 1930's). It's the second largest building in the world; only the Pentagon is bigger.
