Would it be the Portico of Octavia? If so, Augustus built it as a monument to his sister Octavia around 26BC.
The image in your challenge is of the southwest entrance - which is all that remains of the original structure.
An on-line article notes the ruin now forms part of an archaeological park that includes some temples and the theatre of Marcellus.
This image shows the portico under night lighting.

These two images are related. They are part of one rather large thing.
As a whole, this place has been described as one of the world's "buried treasures."
What it is leads you to where it is. Need both answers for the win.

Part of the Chicago Transit Authority rapid transit system nicknamed the "L" for elevated.
Your picture appears to show act rain entering "the loop".
This image is a frontal of the same area, if I'm correct.

Based on total track mileage the Chicago system is the second largest rail transit system in the U.S., behind New York.

Correct, Admiral. It's a view of the loop in central Chicago. Your photo is the same curve, taken from the opposite side. You have the challenge, Admiral.
P.S. auto correct did a number on your post, Admiral.
