Marina City, Chicago, Illinois - a photo on Flickriver

            Marina City is a residential/commercial building complex sitting on the north bank of the Chicago River in Chicago, directly across from the Loop district. Consisting of two corncob-shaped towers (587-foot, 65-story), it occupies an entire city block on State Street.  The complext also includes a saddle-shaped auditorium building, and a mid-rise hotel, all on a raised platform next to the river. 

Designed by Bertrand Goldberg, Marina City was the first building in the United States to be constructed with tower cranes.  It was completed in 1964 at a cost of $36 million.
