Pool on 14
When the Junior Olympic sized swimming pool at the Medinah Athletic Club in Chicago was completed in 1929, it was a remarkable feat of engineering - on the 14th floor of a skyscraper, it was then highest pool in the world (above ground level). Some call it the "Johnny Weissmuller Pool", as the Olympic gold medalist and Tarzan actor trained here. The building is now the Hotel InterContinental Magnificient Mile, and the pool is part of a fitness center available to hotel guests. It spans the entire width of the south tower. On the far wall is a terra cotta "Fountain of Neptune", surrounded with Spanish majolica tile. Though the fountain is currently dry, the hotel management have been careful to preserve all of the 1920s architectural detail of the space. 3-shot HDR, handheld. -
