Most pictures you see of the Chicago skyline come the east or north, zoomed in on downtown. But the Windy City is a huge city and is much more than just the Willis Tower, John Hancock Building, Trump Tower and other downtown office buildings. I took this shot during a helicopter tour of the city as we hovered just north of Wrigley Field (bottom left), looking south to downtown, with Clark Street dividing the frame.
