Midway Plaisance

This is a long overdue post from December USk Chicago meet. There were only four of us at the Logan Art Center - a new addition to U Chicago campus on Chicago South Side. The Center is located on a boulevard called Midway Plaisance that looked like this on a gray December afternoon.

The second sketch I drew looking down from the Penthouse on the 8th floor of the Art Center. This brick building that looks old enough have an interesting history (although I don't know it) is located on the south side of Midway Plaisance. Currently it houses School of Social Services Administration - how prosaic for such a fairytale architecture.
