Recorrido por la ciudad de Chicago: Recorrido por la arquitectura elevada con boleto de tren incluido
Descripción
Explore la asombrosa arquitectura de Chicago desde la perspectiva única de los trenes elevados y las plataformas de las estaciones. Conozca la historia detrás del famoso sistema "L" y escuche cómo ha dado forma al desarrollo de edificios dentro del Loop. El primer tren elevado de la ciudad comenzó a hacer viajes en 1892. Ahora se considera una de las características más definitorias de Chicago, la "L" ofrece increíbles vistas del centro. Al estar a más de 20 pies del suelo, verá detalles arquitectónicos que la mayoría de los peatones pasan por alto al nivel de la calle. Este es nuestro recorrido más completo en el Loop, pasando por cientos de edificios y destacando los de importancia arquitectónica. Como organización sin fines de lucro certificada, todas las compras de boletos CAC apoyan directamente nuestros esfuerzos educativos y proyectos de participación comunitaria.

We had a wonderful tour with Quentin. He was full of information about events leading to the elevated system. Also, so much information about the buildings surrounding the areas we covered. The admission price is reasonable. The time allowed was sufficient but we would have enjoyed even more time.
