Chicago was founded in the early 1800s and served as a
connection between the developed East Coast and the enlarged
Wild West. On the shores of Lake Michigan, the development of
suburbia and skyscrapers was low but persistent. Though the
devastating fire of 1871 grounded Chicago, it came back again
and this time growth took pace every decade. By 1900, it crossed
the mark of two million people.

Chicago is now the third largest city in the United States next
to New York City and Los Angeles, California. Not only being the
third largest city in the U.S, Chicago also ranks among the
world’s leading industrial and transportation centers

From what I have read, Chicago is nicknamed the windy city for
different reasons. The first reason is that the Mayor of Chicago
boasted so much about Chicago hosting the worlds fair, which
implied the Mayor was windy. Another reason was that the
politicians in the Chicago are full of hot air therefore
implying the windy city. The last reason is that the editor of a
newspaper was trying to promote Chicago as a summer resort and
used Lake Michigan’s summer breeze as a selling point. I do not
know which of the reasons above gave Chicago its nickname the
windy city but they all seem to make sense to me.

Chicago is also renowned for its excellent art institutions and
museums, great food and great jazz music. If you have an
appetite for sports, Chicago has the legendary Bulls, Bears, and
Cubs, which are well known all over the world.

Chicago is a wonderful place to visit. The fever of Chicago will
impress you.
