Chicago, known as the Windy City is the
third most populous city in the United States. There are few more
dramatic urban landscapes than the hip windy city of Al Capone and
High Fidelity. Skyscrapers decked like dominoes stand tall on the
banks of Lake Michigan while the Chicago River cuts through the
heart of downtown, separating your business district from your
shopping and entertainment on the North Side. Chicago was the site
of the world's first skyscraper, and today is the architectural,
financial, and cultural capital of the Midwest and transportation
center of the country. Chicago's skyscrapers, local cuisine,
political traditions, and sports teams are some of its most
recognized symbols. On
