What makes Chicago Walking Tour: Must-See Chicago a unique experience ?
Known for its Spanish Colonial Revival style, the Wrigley Building features a distinctive white terra cotta facade.
View the Chicago Riverwalk.
It’s fair to say Aqua is a star-maker, with its 2009 completion putting the city’s newest neighborhood, Lakeshore East, on the tip of everyone’s tongue. And though Aqua certainly wasn’t architect Jeanne Gang’s first project, it is the one that put her on Chicagoans’ architectural radar.
Designed by Howells & Hood, the Tribune Tower was the result of an international design competition to create “the most beautiful building in the world.”
View the exterior of the Art Institute of Chicago’s Modern Wing.
View the Hancock Center, now 875 N Michigan Avenue.
Millennium Park is home to the famous Cloud Gate sculpture, known as “The Bean.”
