Yes, I can see that, too! They look so solemn and "guarding"!
Aren't they fabulous?! And do you know what that building was? from the windows that I see it looks like it might have been a school or something like that? It doesn't appear to be anything that would have indicated "special" adornments... does it? And yet... there they are! I LOVE that!
Perhaps they are similar to the carvings on a totem pole, or some sort of stylized lion. Chicago has some wonderful architecture. Thanks for stopping by.
We're heading to Chicago this summer.
Mine's up :)
I saw those old happy/sad drama masks. I'm surprised the movie house was there until the 1990s. I thought they all died away in the seventies. I suppose they will never come back. I enjoy the details in the old buildings.
Very interesting, from all cities I have seen in the States, Chicago was my favourite, because of its amazing architecture. I loved the old skyscrapers with their golden ornaments and the old houses in some areas. It had been a feast for a photographers eye !
They look like totem pole within the building.
I will Exercise for Comments!

Very neat. They remind me of totem poles.

Those carvings are very cool. :) Such wonderful detail on the building!
Thanks for visiting. :)
That's a great structure. Thanks for focusing on the nice details. Wonderful accents always make a building seem more interesting.
Thanks for sharing.
Like the photos and the presentation.
Noticed your book pile photo - Catcher in the Rye is one of my all-time favorites.
I've heard really good things about the Morrie book.
Thanks for sharing and visiting mine,
