Across the river, part of the facilities of the Material Service Corporation (later Prairie Material, Ready Mix Yard No. 32) located at 835 North Peoria Street, are visible.

View looking northwest from the west Loop over the west part of the Near North Side. The top of the telescoping tower of 188 West Randolph Street (Steuben Club Building) is in the foreground at the bottom center. The Apparel Center and the Merchandise Mart are behind that. To the left across the river from the Apparel Center is the North American Cold Storage Company warehouse (seen before renovation as the Fulton House Condominiums). The Montgomery Ward & Company Headquarters tower (now The Montgomery condominiums) stands out in the distance on the right.
