Review of Chicagoland Tower Views on DVD by Machines of Iron

Chicagoland Tower Views takes a look at thirteen locations in Chicago and Northern Indiana. Machines of Iron visited these spots in 1999 and 2000. Some of the towers have since closed.

We'll see Corwith Tower, Brighton Park Crossing, Root Street Tower, Ash Street Crossing, Gresham Tower, Vermont Street Tower and station (Blue Island), Blue Island Junction, State Line Tower, Hohman Avenue Tower, Grasselli Tower, and Hick Tower.
