The thing about Chicago is you can just be walking around and next thing you know this is the view

Chicago cityscape featuring modern skyscrapers, including the Sears tower prominently in the middle, surrounded by trees and residential structures. The sky is clear, and the lighting suggests late afternoon.

A shallow smog blankets the Los Angeles basin with the skyscrapers of downtown LA rising above in the foreground of the picture. Beyond the skyscrapers, haze obscures the details of the urban sprawl. The mountains to the north of the city appear silhouetted in the background.

Looking up at various skyscrapers in Chicago. The tallest one on the right side has a mirror like surface that is pale blue with horizontal lines. Another skyscraper to the left appears to be shaped like a boat and has a glass-like surface that is a grayish green/blue. Behind that are a couple of white skyscrapers in the distance. In the lower left foreground is a red steel structure for the subway. In the lower right corner is a red brick building that has vines growing up most of it so there is a nice contrast between the red building and green vines. The windows have glass panes with are reflecting the sky. A couple of trees stand in front of the brick building.

#QuizOfTheDay: Tall buildings, such as #Skyscrapers, are enclosed structures with continuously occupiable floors and a height of at least 340 metres (1,120 ft).

What is the Tallest Building in the World now?

Working list: Longest grain elevators in the USA

Enormous grain elevators are truly the rural skyscrapers of the American Heartland. These tall and lengthy structures are nearly impressive from afar as they are up close. One cannot help but be amazed by their sheer size and scale.

Provided below is a working list of the longest grain elevators in the United States. This includes currently active elevators, as well as those where operations have ceased, but where the structures remain standing. The list also includes concrete structures, metal ones, as well as elevators that were constructed/expanded using a mix of the two materials.

Unless the length is specified through research, the elevators were measured along the structure’s longest axis. This includes related structures that are connected on that same axis, other than low-rise buildings for storage, office, etc. An equal sign (=) means the length is provided by resources, while an estimated symbol (~) indicates the length was approximated by using CalcMaps.

A minimum length of 300 feet is required for inclusion. As more grain elevators are identified around the country, they will be added to the list.

As can be seen from a review of the list, there are several cities that are home to a significant agglomeration of grain elevators. These include (listed alphabetically):

Amarillo, Texas
Dodge City, Kansas
Duluth-Superior, Minnesota/Wisconsin
Enid, Oklahoma
Fort Worth (Saginaw), Texas
Garden City, Kansas
Hutchinson, Kansas
Kansas City, Kansas/Missouri
Omaha-Council Bluffs, Nebraska/Iowa
Salina, Kansas
Sioux City, Iowa/Nebraska/South Dakota
Topeka, Kansas

Several other cities were once home to a large number of elevators, but have seen their numbers dwindle over the decades. These include Buffalo, New York; Chicago, Illinois; and Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota. Some cities have worked to preserve or adaptively reuse their former grain elevators including, but not limited to Buffalo, Enid, Salina, and Toledo. Separate posts from September 2nd and August 4th review some of these efforts. Enid, Oklahoma has so far as to have a cluster of nine grain elevators built between 1925 and 1954 declared a National Historic District.

As always, any additions, corrections, or suggestions to this list are most welcome. Peace!

Skyscraper Day

Damouré (Damouré Zika) measures a Parisian with craniology callipers. No skyscraper in this still, but there's scaffolding. DP: Jean Rouch.

A skyscraper for Skyscraper Day (USA)

In the sequel to Rouch's Jaguar (1967), Damouré wants a high rise for his Niger business with “as many floors as he has wives”. He decides to travel to Paris to learn about the construction of such building, and what made Paris to the Paris of today. While there, he gets distracted by the peculiarities of the French natives. Worried about Damouré's increasingly puzzling postcards, his company sends out Lam (Lam Ibrahim Dia) to bring him home.
