Begin your tour near Willis Tower, once the tallest building in the world and a symbol of Chicago's rise as a global city. Here, your guide will introduce the remarkable story of how Chicago overcame pollution, rapid growth, and public health crises through bold engineering and innovation.
Board Chicago's Water Taxi and cruise along the Chicago River. As you travel through the heart of downtown, your guide will reveal the stories behind the city's world-famous skyline. Learn how pioneering architects and engineers helped create the modern skyscraper, transforming Chicago into a living laboratory of urban design.
