Chicago

Illinois, USA

Chicago

Known as the Windy City, Chicago rises up from the shores

of Lake Michigan to present the perfect image of a modern

American metropolis.

As the ‘Gateway to the West’ and the starting point of the

famous Route 66, Chicago became America’s fastest

growing city as the country expanded westward. It is now

the third largest city in the USA, with 77 distinct districts and

a population of nearly three million people.

History and architecture have always gone hand-in-hand in

Chicago. The Great Fire of 1871 forced the city to completely

reinvent itself and provided the foundation for the vibrant

modern skyline we see today.

[ “It is hopeless for the occasional visitor to try to keep up

with Chicago. She outgrows his prophecies faster than he

can make them.” ]

Mark Twain

Located in the heart of the city, the 110-story Willis Tower was

completed in 1974 at a cost of $175 million. The tower was

the ﬁrst to use the “bundled-tubular” construction principle,

where nine independent sections were joined together to

provide extra stability against Chicago’s high winds. The

Willis Tower has more than 16,000 bronze-tinted windows

and 28 acres (11.3 ha) of black aluminum cladding or “skin”.

The Ledge, the famous glass balcony that extends from the

tower’s observation deck, leaves visitors standing 1,353 ft.

(412 m) in the air.

Cloud Gate

Designed by British artist Anish Kapoor, the 110-ton

(99,790.3 kg) elliptical sculpture is forged from a seamless

series of highly polished stainless steel plates, which reﬂect

Chicago’s famous skyline and the clouds above. Inspired by

liquid mercury, the sculpture is among the largest of its kind

in the world, measuring 66 ft. (20 m) long by 33 ft. (10 m) high.

DuSable Bridge

The DuSable Bridge is where the famous Michigan Avenue

crosses the Chicago River and is both a beautiful work of

art and a great civil engineering feat. Completed in 1920,

the Beaux Arts style bridge was designed to resemble the

Alexander III Bridge over the Seine in Paris. The double-deck

bridge with highways on both levels opens up to allow boats

to pass underneath.

Standing on a triangular piece of land at the northwest

corner of Michigan Avenue and the Chicago River, The

Wrigley Building has been an iconic part of the city’s skyline

for over 95 years. The Wrigley Building consists of two towers,

completed in 1921 and 1924, connected by walkways at

the 3rd and 14th ﬂoors. The Wrigley Building’s architecture

combines French Renaissance and Spanish Revival styles,

but adds a unique American twist.

The Wrigley Building is clad in more than 250,000 terra

cotta tiles of more than 500 unique designs. The tiles are

six diﬀerent colors, ranging from blue-white at the bottom

to creamy white at the top, to enhance a sunlit appearance.

This simple, rectangular International Style structure was

completed in 1973 and is famous for its eye-catching red

color. The 600 ft. (183 m) tall building is also renowned for

using its lights and windows to display messages during

festive and sporting events. A computer program is used to

calculate which windows need to be activated to create the

proper message.

Big Red

Completed in 1970, the distinctive 100-story John Hancock

Center reaches 1,127 ft. (343.5 m) into the city skyline. Named

after an insurance company and original tenant, the tower

is known locally in Chicago as “Big John”. A band of white

lights adorn the top of the building and are visible throughout

Chicago at night. The color of these lights changes to mark

diﬀerent holidays such as Christmas (red & green), Valentine’s

Day (red & white) and St Patrick’s Day (green).
