Built in the late 1860s, these two structures , designed by William Boyington, were among the few buildings to survive the Great Chicago Fire of 1871.
During the cold winter in Chicago is the beat place to spend some hours enjoying sales in good shops and great taste and fresh meal in a large list of restaurants
Nice to walk by, worth about a 4 block detour. There is a free photo gallery inside.
Another must see. Stop while shopping to take in the sight from every angle. It's one of the oldest pieces of architecture really well done.
Great to see some historical architecture in the middle of town . They should put a historical exhibition inside rather than the current gallery which seemed a bit out of place.
One of Chicago signature Land Marks ???? you can't miss it if you are in the area !!
Really beautiful old style building that really fits well into the city
This is the only building in this area to survive the Great Chicago Fire .
Miraculously saved from the Great Chicago Fire , this is a distinctive landmark of Old Chicago in the heart of the Magnificent Mile.
Historic monument in the midst on the city .
Great Chicago landmark . One of the few buildings that survived the Great Chicago Fire .
A beautiful landmark in a great area of Chicago.
One of my fav Chicago landmarks . Wish they'd do more with the inside though. Maybe some history of the tower and not some lame art exhibit .
There is an art museum inside, make sure you check it out!
It's really pretty - a small building on both sides of the road .
Go in and wander around if it's hot out. It's free but not very big.
You can go inside for a 30 second art tour haha
One of the few buildings in the district to survive the 1871 fire.
White Castle 's motif was inspired by this famous water tower.
Don't miss the exhibit Inside
This landmark is just steps away from Loyola's Water Tower Campus on Pearson Street.
I love the Armani exchange there
Great piece of Chicago history
Hang out and look at the art exhibit and warm up!

One of the only buildings that survived the Chicago Fire.

Another iconic Chicago building
Historic building
Nothing on the history of the tower when you go inside. Missing a trick here.
Go inside and see the vintage pictures of Chicago.

This place really interest me because I come from a family that loves the blues. However, Willie Dixon's Blues Heaven tells a story about it and how it developed in Chicago. My future destination. - Raveese Gladney
The area has changed so much (double level bridges!) that it's very hard to imagine the Fort Dearborn of yester- yester- year. Only a couple hard to find plaques mark the area. - Lina Gonzo
Shopping is really good! Also the downstairs food court has a lot of options! - Julia Cohon
Definitely worth the wait but be prepared. We were in line almost 1.5 hours from start to finish. Wear comfy shoes lol. - Sean Miller
The Mahi Mahi was awesome and any kind of dessert you get you won't regret! - Lynn Jeremiah
