Makes You Wonder

Last year, for reasons not entirely clear, the owners of the Illinois Center complex of office buildings added a bright red canopy to the main entrance.

According to a blogger about Chicago Architecture, it was meant to liven up the "dark and sober" design of the black boxy office buildings.

While it does add a splash of color to the landscape, I can't help thinking that the designer is a fan of the Rolling Stones and was inspired by their logo.

Today is National Wear Red Day. Take care of your heart!
