Dime Pier

This pictures seems really ominous to me. Or maybe it just seems that way because it was really overcast that day. I digress. Dime Pier is one of those things that fascinates me. It's basically this big, long seagulls' nest that faces Navy Pier. I'm surprised that Navy Pier hasn't tried to cover up this giant eyesore. Although I actually kind of like the way it looks. Plus it keeps all the big waves out of harbor, which is always appreciated when you live on a boat.
