There is one comment.

  This is one cool bridge. When looking southeast on a clear day from Pioneer Court and the bridge, one can see the Sears Tower, just barely visible in back of 35 East Wacker Drive. This was the biggest deal in Chicago when built, because it connected the Loop to Streeterville. The bridge on the southwest corner is said to have a River Bridge Museum inside.
