assuming you intended the two flags to be the main subject of the photo, i would have to say you need to eliminate the light colored building on the right, because i keep finding myself looking at that instead of the flags.

I left the corner of the Old Water Tower showing at the right. That structure, built in 1859, inspired the design of White Castle restaurants. I suppose it's only recognizable by Chicagoans. Yes, the flags are supposed to be the primary attraction.
