On the map
Chicago rises along the southwestern shore of Lake Michigan in northeastern Illinois, a flat prairie setting that gave its architects room to invent the modern skyscraper. The nation's third-largest city is celebrated for its lakefront, deep-dish pizza, blues and jazz heritage, and neighborhoods that stretch out from the Loop. The lake dominates the eastern horizon, while the Chicago River threads through downtown and the surrounding plains open toward the Midwest farmland.
