River Walk coming along nicely.

The Chicago Tribune reported today on the progress of the river walk: Chicago river walk extension keeps rolling along.

"The latest phase of work to connect existing sections of riverfront pathways is expected to be done in June."

The progress is great news for the neighborhood and our building.

I snapped a couple of photos from my balcony in the west tower:



















This shot is the section from Michigan Ave to Wabash. The area in front of O'Brien's restaurant has been extended further out and extends under the Wabash bridge.



















This photo is the section from Wabash to State St. This construction is not as complete as the previous photo. You can see the earth mover bringing gravel to fill in the area that still has water. The anchored barge and tug boat in the middle and left of the photo make quite a racket when they are running.
