Support Presuming that the perspective isn't too distorting - and it looks fine, I just don't know Chicago - this is one of the most unique and compelling images I've seen of a city in some time. Article usages are acceptable, could be more prominent, but good enough to add value. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 09:30, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- I've gone ahead and rationalized the images in Legacy Tower. This one's clearly the best, and shows things far better than any of the other images did. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 09:35, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I also like this picture very much. That stretched Hummer was the perfect chance to balance the composition against the skyscrapers with a little help of a wide angle lens. Poc o² 09:49, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support, wonderful perspective lines. — Cirt (talk) 19:03, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support. I added it to Metra Electric District, since we don't seem to have another good shot of the outlet of the Millennium Station tunnel. Chick Bowen 00:44, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support Very nice shot, and agree with Poc that the Hummer helps the composition. Currently the EV is dispersed in several articles and there is no article about East Monroe Street where it would have the highest EV (if notable). However the EV in Legacy Tower is sufficient. As it seems that this image was taken from the Nichols pedestrian bridge, I think this should be specified in the file description. --ELEKHH^T 23:13, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
