The 2016 Miriam-Webster Word of the Year was 'surreal' and easily the most surreal experience of my year was visiting the bizarro word of ten-story slides, caves, tunnels, and the convoluted underground labyrinth of twisting mazes and passages in the steampunk mutant wonderland that is City Museum.

Unquestionably, it's one of the most surreal places in the entire country.. . . . . . . . . . #spiralstairs#cityscape#urbanromantix#onlystaircases#theworldneedsmorespiralstaircases#blackandwhite#instamood#chicago#enjoyillinois#perspective#staircase#geometry#stairs#zaghunting#streetphotography#escalamonite#archilovers#architecture#whpgeometry#iwalkchicago#design#repetition#staircases_fireescapes_ss#kennyk#kinzco#k2modern#k2wreckingcrew#streetdreamsmag#chicago (at City Museum, St Louis, MO)
