I wanted to take this picture during the week of the facade theme, but I couldn't get over there. I went ahead and took it yesterday anyway, because I was right there.
My brother goes to the First Congregational Church of Western Springs (just a couple of blocks north of the water tower) where he is the choir director.
Copied from the church Web site: "In 1929, the congregation moved into the building and sanctuary where we presently hold services. G. Grant Elmslie, a Prairie School architect and highly regarded associate of the renowned Louis Sullivan, designed this building. Today the elegant woodwork patterns, the resplendent stained glass window above the altar, and the detailed stonework on our building's edifice serve as stunning reminders of Elmslie's talents."
September 2015 - I dropped my Nikon L22 at the arboretum (on asphalt!) and it's definitely broken. :(
October 2014- finally reached 365 photographs and it...
