What To Expect
1
Chicago Public Library - Hall Branch
It was named for the city’s first African American Mayor, who served from 1983-87 and opened in 1991. Chicago’s known for having some of the finest architecture in the world.
2
Financial District
centered on LaSalle Street in the Loop, is the fulcrum of the heartland’s economic engines. Looming skyscrapers form a canyon-like effect down LaSalle, which ends abruptly with the Art Deco masterpiece of the Board of Trade on Jackson. Floridly-dressed commodity traders at the Board of Trade, regulators at the Chicago Fed, and bankers of all pinstripes know this power corridor very well.
3
Calder’s Flamingo
53-foot tall stabile located in the Federal Plaza in front of the Kluczynski Federal Building. It was commissioned by the United States General Services Administration and was unveiled in 1974, although Calder's signature on the sculpture indicates it was constructed in 1973.
4
The Rookery Building
The Rookery building in the heart of Chicago’s financial district stands testimony to the resilience and creative spirit of late-nineteenth century Chicago. The rebirth of the city in the wake of the Great Fire of 1871 gave rise to the multi-storied office building that would transform the landscape of America’s cities.
5
Palmer House Hilton Historic Lobby
The story of downtown Chicago’s Palmer House Hilton is one of romance and undeniable charm. Potter Palmer was a Chicago business magnate—well-known for a variety of endeavors, including his significant role in the development of downtown Chicago’s iconic State Street.

Ben was an amazing tour guide giving us insight not only on the city of Chicago itself but also the Chicago food scene outside of the delicious places we visited on the tour.

Although it snowed and was cold, it was a great tour. Danny had lots of local charm and knowledge. He showed us several unique and noteworthy sights and made sure we got some of the best food Chicago has to offer! It was easy to find him and the tour began right on time. I was also stuffed by the time the tour was over. My money and time was well spent! Don’t hesitate to book this tour if you have the chance!
