Cloud Gate -- aka The Bean



I have a really visceral response to this thing. It makes me grit my teeth and feel funny inside. She's "bean" under wraps while getting polished up (this is an old picture where she still has seams), and was recently unveiled. There's fences around so you can't get too close, but its truly going to be stunning. Behind schedule and over budget, but I don't care. Its amazing; it looks like its from another world.

it is so worth the money. the teaser side is amazing. I want to go and spend a day staring at it when it opens. I feel like if I stare long enough some secret will be revealed to me.
