Chicago for Dummies

Chicago for Dummies 

By: Laura Tiebert

Let’s get one thing straight upfront:Chicagois the best-kept big-city secret in theUnited States. A bold statement, you say? It may be, but it’s fitting for this straight-shooting metropolis on the prairie. Chicagois loud and smart, crude and glamorous, brash and refined. In some ways it’s casually elegant, and in others, unabashedly goofy. You can see the contrasts in the glamour of Michigan Avenue’s elegant hotels and the boisterousness of the fans screaming for “Da Bears” at Soldier Field. Flashy sports cars idle curbside at Rush Street’s hot spots, while farther west, art-school hipsters look for the offbeat in WickerPark. Then again, you can find Midwesterners in their conservative pullovers and khakis just trying to make sense of it all.

It has been said that Chicagois the most livable city in the United States. [download]
