Thank you! I was kind of afraid that it was, you know, just another picture looking up. But I guess something quite like that can be said of almost any photo: Oh, it's just another portrait. Oh, it's just another landscape. Oh, it's just another picture of the earth from outer space…
So, yes, thank you. I'm glad you like it. As I said, I wasn't sure it was anything special, but I did (and do) like it quite a bit.
Well, if the building has "a bit of a Chicago feel" to you, I certainly can't argue with that—if that's how it feels that's how it feels. But my assumption is that your assumption was actually that the photo was taken somewhere other than in Chicago. Which is true—it was taken in St Paul, Minnesota.
Funny that it reminds you of your childhood, though, since the building you can see the corner of is the lower school of St Paul Academy and Summit School. It originally housed Summit School (an all-girl prep school), but when it and St Paul Academy (an all-boy prep school at which the poor lads all had to wear military-type uniforms back then) merged in the early 70's it became the lower school and the old St Paul Academy campus became the middle and upper schools.
And, as I said above, while I have taken photos in Chicago, this isn't one of them. Hey, some of the photos I've taken in Chicago were in the front room of your old apartment, as you no doubt remember; others of them, well, here are a couple three of them:
