Well, I thought it looked OK, but didn't know about the tour boats. Of course the last time I saw it was in the 80s.

They still had some pink air with the scary looking little cottonball clouds.

Alot has changed since the ‘80’s. Navy Pier was rehabbed and is a big tourist spot now too. Donald Trump put up a new skyscraper on the river. Then there’s Millennium Park (completed way over budget, of course). And beautiful planters filled with flowers—someone’s relative probably got that contract. Seems like there was alot of construction started in the south Loop area as well, but it seemed to have slowed down with the current economic conditions. As we all know, the “city fathers” had big plans for that.
