Description
This was the 14th-floor hallway in our hotel in Chicago. Chip, Corey and Yvonne will recognise it immediately!
The Reliance Building, so named for its functionality, opened in March 1895. It was one of the first skyscrapers to offer electricity and phone service in all of its offices. In its first few decades, it provided office space for merchants and health professionals, including Al Capone's dentist.
(... from Wikipedia)
It seemed as though Sam Spade may have had an office on the 5th floor. We never caught sight of him, but thought we saw his secretary at one point. I don't think any of us imagined Al Capone's dentist! (Room 809, if you're curious. We stayed in 1408.)
For those of you interested in architectural history, here's a link to the Wiki on the Reliance Building.

That is a plush carpet and lovely marble walls, super shot.
cool shot ( and pov of course! )
A long long corridor....xcellent!!
a superb floor
It has an efficient and cold look, but it makes a great pic.
Nicely captured.
Awesome capture!
Superbly super-cool filled with eye candy shot Tara!!!!!!
beautiful floor and POV too!!
Almost identical to the pic in the Wikipedia description, except your light fittings are much brighter - which is not a bad thing - makes the marble walls more apparent ... I will always like that infinity depth effect of a that long carpeted hallway. BB
So, you could have stayed in Al Capones Dentist room lol Claim to fame! ;-) Great perspective Tara, well taken.. Rob
Great Photo and POV.
REDRUM! REDRUM! I almost expect to see a ghost child riding a tricycle towards us Great capture
Look at that floor, FANTASTIC!...Nice shallow vanishing point to this one Tara.
It's lovely! And what a great shot, bet you had fun with this!
Superb. I thank you for this one. 5+! It says a lot about you.
Outstanding perspective!! Wonderful marbled walls!
Great shot--looks a lot like a foto I took of a hallway very similar to this one. I love that perspective!!
Great depth, as well as capturing the charms of a bygone era. What popped into my head as I looked at this is the long tracking shot of Danny riding his big wheels down the haunted corridors of the Overlook Hotel in Stanley Kubrick's "The Shining"...
Stunning capture Tara. God Bless.
it makes me dizzy if I scroll, but what a gorgeous picture
WOW! What a hallway. Very beautiful shot, Tara. Love that floor :)
amazing photo and interior too
wonderful shot
Wonderful, simply and pure old art work. Amazing.
Nice shot! :)
Next time in Chicago...room 809. Next time in Kansas City...the Savoy Grill to sit in Harry S. Truman's favorite booth for lunch. This hallway, identical on every floor I am sure, is very striking from this POV. Love it.
Very opulent. Great conversion of lines, Clive
that is a longgggggggggggggggg hallway :-) brilliant POV!!!
the corridor goes on forever, great depth
