Superman Filming in Chicago

Posted on September 12, 2011 by jlmicek

Live from Twitter, here’s some some pix of “Man of Steel” shooting in Chicago’s downtown Loop.
Based on what I can see, it’s either the Federal complex around Dearborn or the Daley Center around State Street.

It’s 111 E. Wacker – next to the Hyatt.

Thanks! Couldn’t be 100 percent sure. It’s been a decade since I’ve lived in Chicagoland. My geography is a little rusty.

I work in the black building in the picture on the 3rd floor. I had a great view of all the extras rehearsing. They moved in a lot of wind machines for the actual shoot which must have occurred in the evening (9/12/11).

Then POOF the set is in Union Station this morning (9/14/11). Extras are running up the stairs in the great hall.
