As seen around … Chicago

This fro Steve Redick:

One of the nicest classic CFD houses is old Engine 80 in the Pullman area at 108th and Cottage Grove. The house is in desperate need of repair and I fear is in really rough shape on the inside. From the pictures it looks like some kind of preservation work was done on the roof. I used the drone to try and get some interesting views.  The watch tower is a one-of-a-kind structure and I would love to know if it’s still safe to ascend … hard to tell from the outside. Here are some stills from an aerial perspective.
