This tower is in front of a YMCA in Niles, IL. (a suburb just north of Chicago) This is my hometown, I lived here in Niles for 20 years. The name of the YMCA is called the Leaning Tower YMCA. It's been there for at least 45 years.

Wow, you got this picture! I heard about this leaning tower and really want to see the tower. Tom, do you have the address of this place? Thanks.

Eric,
Thank you for the nice comments. I do not know the deep parts of PTAssembler so I don't know what you mean by t0 and t1 points. I will try the rotate you were talking about and see what it looks like.

Thanks, Tom

I like this one a lot. For one thing, there's a Ford sign in the background -- a jarring yet real experience. For another, I like the American flag on the top -- odd considering it's in Italy. Also, I toy in my mind with rotating this image so the building is straight but the ground is not -- very easily doable in this photograph since the horizon plays a very minimal role.

Have you considered opening this back up in PTAssembler and setting some t0 and t1 points to correct for the tilt and perspective distortion? It would make a very striking image!
