The architecture of Chicago has influenced and reflected the history of American architecture. The third largest city in the USA, is the place where the modern skyscraper architecture was born.
The city's location on the shores of Lake Michigan, one of the world's largest freshwater bodies, adds to the beauty of Chicago's panorama. The collection of over 1,000 skyscrapers, lined up along the beaches, appears as one of the world's largest and most impressive skylines. Chicago's famous skyline of superstructures is always changing, but of all of the places that I've seen in the world, the beauty of the Chicago skyline is unrivaled. It's like a celebrity lineup of famous Chicago architecture.
With its famous skyline of tall buildings, and its breath-taking natural surroundings, the Midwestern metropolis of Chicago, IL is a truly dramatic location. The Windy City with its colorful history and famous landmarks close to Lake Michigan, a body of water bigger than some European countries, is definitely a place where urbanisation meets nature.
