Chicago

Art & Design

A walking tour of historica architecture near the hostel — in the south loop.

Architecture

This tour begins at the HiChicago Hostel, then explores architecture from 1872 to 1991, within a few blocks. You'll see the styles change, the structural systems change, and the height...well, grow.

Explore the area below. Switch between Map and Satelite to see the streets or the buildings clearly.
