Discover the Chicago River, the Magnificent Mile & the Historic Water Tower district
Chicago
This is a great tour to take after my Exploring the Chicago Loop highlights tour (Art, Architecture & History, oh my!)
This tour starts at the Chicago River, the birthplace of the city!
What started as a small prairie trading post in the 1770s settled by Jean Baptiste Point DuSable, has grown into a bustling metropolis.
I'll share the Chicago Rivers' fascinating history and point out some of its prominent features.
Then we will stroll up north to the historic Water Tower & still functioning Pumping Station pointing out beautiful, iconic buildings & the along the way.
