A: Welcome to Google Snow.


Google Snow Navy Pier

Creating a massive google logo in a public place like navy pier tends to cause a stir. Aside from the time it took to carve the logo from a snow pile, a continuous stream of people wanted to chat, take pictures and find out more information.

Google Snow Michigan/Wacker Chicago

This was the first downtown Google snow project, and one of two designed to be viewed from above (i.e., skyscraper audience). People videotaped and took pictures during construction from the Michigan Ave Bridge.

Google Snow Beta off Clark St. Chicago

This was the beta Google Snow Logo created just off the Alley, Behind the Alley on Clark Street. Since its creation (during the snow storm on Christmas Eve 2010) a word-of-mouth stream of gawkers/photo bugs have been stopping by.

Google Snow Millennium Park Chicago
This logo was crushed by the Millennium Park Security Staff. They were really nice, and didn't want to carry out their order to smash the snow logo. I told them, "It's okay, its just snow..." Still, they felt really bad, but were just following orders of the management who insisted that snow art must be approved before construction takes place.

Google Snow Logo Columbus Drive Chicago
I still haven't seen this from above. Maybe NBC Chicago will invite me up into the tower to see how this giant Google logo looks from their tower.
