Chicago Plog | A City Reborn from Ashes 🌆✨

🏗️ Architectural Phoenix • From Ashes to Skyscrapers: Chicago’s iconic skyline was born from the 1871 Great Fire—a tragedy turned architectural revolution! • Chicago School Legacy: Dankmar Adler, Louis Sullivan, and Frank Lloyd Wright made this city a living textbook of Western architecture. Every steel beam whispers history. ♻️ Where Old Meets Bold • Industrial Chic: Crumbling warehouses → loft apartments 🏭➡️🏡 • Water Tower Gym: Even the 1869 pumping station now lifts weights 💪 • Preservation Wins: The Rookery’s restored lobby (Burnham + Wright collab!) will steal your breath. 🎻 Culture That Dazzles • Art Institute’s Impressionists 🖼️ vs. Buddy Guy’s blues riffs 🎸 • The Green Mill: Al Capone’s former speakeasy still serves jazz with a side of mob lore 🥃 • (Seattle, take notes—this is how you do city vibes!) #ChicagoRising #ArchitectureGeek #JazzAndJava #USATravel 🇺🇸
