Hi Matan,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us this morning. A description of our 2hr Historic Skyscrapers tour is included below:

Chicago is home to some of the world's earliest skyscrapers and innovations required to make a tall building. On this tour, take a step back in time to the late 19th century to see and experience these world-famous early tall buildings that transformed a city devastated by fire into a center of skyscraper design and engineering.

Highlights of this walking tour include: Burnham and Root's Rookery (1888), with its Moorish and Romanesque exterior and its interior atrium redesigned by Frank Lloyd Wright; Adler and Sullivan's Auditorium Building (1889), a masterpiece of acoustical and structural engineering; Holabird and Roche's Marquette Building (1895), an outstanding example of Chicago commercial building design; and Holabird and Root's Chicago Board of Trade Building (1930), a glamorous Art Deco skyscraper.

At this time we cannot guarantee the availability of our docents to arrange this tour but we would be happy to try. To move forward please provide the details listed below:
