Verken de verbazingwekkende architectuur van Chicago vanuit het unieke perspectief van verhoogde treinen en perrons. Leer de geschiedenis achter het beroemde "L"-systeem en hoor hoe het de ontwikkeling van gebouwen binnen de Loop heeft gevormd. De eerste verhoogde trein van de stad begon met het maken van ritten in 1892. Nu beschouwd als een van Chicago's meest bepalende kenmerken, biedt de "L" een ongelooflijk uitzicht op de binnenstad. Door meer dan 20 voet boven de grond te zijn, zie je architectonische details die door de meeste voetgangers op straatniveau worden gemist. Dit is onze meest uitgebreide tour in de Loop, waarbij we honderden gebouwen passeren en gebouwen van architectonisch belang benadrukken. Als gecertificeerde non-profitorganisatie ondersteunen alle aankopen van CAC-tickets rechtstreeks onze onderwijsinspanningen en projecten voor gemeenschapsbetrokkenheid.
Begin de tour in het Chicago Architecture Center. Een ritje met het Chicago Elevated Rail-systeem is inbegrepen. Vraag bij het inchecken voor de rondleiding een "Ventra"-kaart aan bij de Chicago Architecture Box Office.
