Cargo handling facilities, Calumet River

 

View in winter, looking southwest from the East 95th Street bridge towards cargo handling facilities along the Calumet River. Steam rises from the river. The Chicago Skyway runs across the image. There is an overhead crane visible at the left of the image. A large gas storage tank stands out against the sky on the right, and concrete storage silos are visible at the far right. Smokestacks and transmission towers for power lines are visible in the distance.
