Chicago Walking Tour: Historiske skyskrabere
Beskrivelse
Chicago er hjemsted for nogle af verdens tidligste skyskrabere. Få et nærmere kig på disse vidundere fra det 19. århundrede, lær om innovationer, der blev brugt til at bygge dem, og opdag, hvordan de forvandlede Chicago til et centrum for skyskraberdesign og -teknik. Højdepunkter på denne vandretur inkluderer Burnham og Root's Rookery (1888), en overgangsbygning med et maurisk og romansk ydre og et fantastisk indvendigt atrium redesignet af Frank Lloyd Wright; Adler og Sullivans Auditorium Building (1889), et mesterværk inden for akustisk og konstruktionsteknik; og Holabird og Roches Marquette Building (1895), et fremragende eksempel på metalrammeudtrykket med traditionelle detaljer og dekorationer.

Excellent tour of some historic skyscrapers in downtown Chicago. The docent was very knowledgeable about the history of skyscrapers and was able to point out building details that I would have missed on my own. Highly recommend.

Anthony was an excellent guide, made the history of the buildings come alive! Now I see all the elements we discussed referenced in so many buildings all around Chicago. LOVED the inside and outside aspects, the hidden lobby gems!

This was a wonderful tour of Chicago's First Skyscrapers. Our tour guide was great! We visited the Auditorium Theater building, the Marquette Building, the Monadnock Building, the Rookery Building, the Fisher Building, the Manhattan Building, and a couple of others. Our guide told us about load-bearing buildings versus metal-frame buildings, beams and spandrels, the importance of windows (particularly bay windows) for light and ventilation, and much more.
We're so happy you enjoyed the tour and appreciate the great review!
