Bezoek de lobby's van vijf weelderige art-decowolkenkrabbers die tijdens de zakelijke bloei van de roerige jaren '20 nabij de oevers van de Chicago River zijn gebouwd. Ontdek hoe Art Deco het vrolijke optimisme van het tijdperk weerspiegelde met weelderige materialen en geometrische ornamenten. Ontdek de oorsprong van Art Deco terwijl je gebouwen bewondert zoals het Carbide and Carbon Building (nu Pendry Chicago), het Chicago Motor Club Building (nu de Hampton Inn) en het kleurrijke, maar vaak over het hoofd geziene, Trustees System Service Building (nu de Century Tower) - die allemaal zijn aangewezen als oriëntatiepunten van Chicago. Als gecertificeerde non-profitorganisatie ondersteunen alle aankopen van CAC-tickets rechtstreeks onze onderwijsinspanningen en projecten voor gemeenschapsbetrokkenheid.

Great tour of Art Deco buildings
Out tour guide Maureen was excellent. She gave us an excellent overview of several buildings inside and out. She was very informed and kept the pace just right. We are members of the Chicago Architecture Foundation and it has been a great investment because they offer so many excellent tours like this one

Insightful insight into Chicago's Art Deco buildings on the riverfront
Very informative walking tour covering several Chicago skyscrapers completed in the Art Deco period (late 1920s). The tour guide (Mitch) did a great job mixing history with more recent updates about Chicago, demonstrating knowledge and enthusiasm for the city and its architecture

Opportunity to see inside some wonderful buildings in Chicago.
This was an opportunity to see the beautiful art deco interiors of buildings. Our guide,Nick, had a wealth of knowledge on the art deco designs and the history of the buildings.
Tour is an ideal complement to the exterior walking tours.

Excellent Art Deco Walking Tour
We did the art deco walking tour with CAC. We had a wonderful guide, Betsy J, , who was enthusiastic and extremely well informed. Betsy and the tour far exceeded our expectations. She moved the tour along at a brisk pace but stopped to explain architectural details and answer questions along the way. Highly recommend. Thanks Betsy!!

Art deco delight
Excellent way to explore Chicago and learn more about its history and architecture. Loved our guide (Jennifer) who took time to show us big and small details. The weather was perfect (with the right amount of wind to remind us we are in Chicago) and left the tour wanting more.
We were given headsets before the walk started which meant we could hear our guide even in the bustle of the city.
One other comment about the tours organised by the CAC: the guides all volunteers who love their city and enjoy sharing it with others. None of them accepts tips. This deserves a special shout out.
Strongly recommended.

Worthwhile tour
This was really good, particularly after the boat tour as we got to go inside the buildings. Mary Jane was very informative and easy to talk with.

Fantastic Tour - Worth the time and money
I grew up in Chicago and had family visiting from out of town. We took a walking tour with the Chicago Architecture Center. The tour guide was fantastic. While I already knew a lot about Chicago history, I never toured the buildings we saw. I learned so much more about Chicago’s rich history and architecture. If you have a few hours, the tours are worth the time and money.
