Upon its completion it was the world’s second tallest building. It also featured the nation’s fastest elevators, moving from lobby to observatory in 39 seconds or 20.5 mph. Crown Royal, Martini & Rossi Vermouth, Luxardo, Angostura Bitters, Brandy Cherry NEGRONI NAVY PIER When it opened to the public in 1916, Navy Pier was the largest pier in the world. Built by architect Daniel Burnham as part of the plan of Chicago, it was created for cargo shipping as well as a public entertainment site. In the 1920s, the pier was a summer playground, with recreational facilities that included picnicking areas, playgrounds, dining and dance halls. It is named in honor of the naval personnel that served there during WWI. Bombay, Martini & Rossi Sweet Vermouth, Campari AQUA COSMO TOWER Aqua Tower is one of the latest skyscrapers to grace the Chicago skyline. Designed by Jeanne Gang of Studio Gang, Aqua is the largest project ever awarded to an American firm headed by a woman. Her sculptural design was inspired by the striated limestone outcroppings common in the Great Lakes area. Built with sustainability in mind, it boasts rainwater collection systems and the largest green roof in Chicago. Absolut, Cointreau, Cranberry Juice, Fresh Squeezed Lime Juice DARK AND WRIGLEY FIELD Built by chewing-gum magnate, William Wrigley Jr. for his company headquarters in 1920, The Wrigley Building pioneered development on North Michigan Avenue and continues to anchor it to this day with its bold location at the Chicago River. Designed by the architectural firm of Graham, Anderson, Probst & White, it used the shape of the Giralda tower of Seville’s Cathedral combined with French Renaissance details. At its time, it was the first building in Chicago to offer air conditioning. Bacardi Black, Goslings Ginger Beer, Lime Juice COMISKEY PARK MULE The original Comiskey Park was the home of the Chicago White Sox from 1910 through 1990. Built for Sox team owner Charles Comiskey and designed by Zachary Taylor Davis, Comiskey Park was very modern for its time. It was the third concrete-and-steel stadium in the major leagues to be built since 1909 and was briefly considered the “The Baseball Palace of the World.” Tito’s Handmade, Freshly Squeezed Lime Juice, Spicy Ginger Beer WATER TOWER MARGARITA (MAKE IT AN ULTIMATE - 16) The Chicago Water Tower on Michigan Avenue was an original water pump station intended to draw water from Lake Michigan. It was built in 1869 by architect William W. Boyington from yellowing Joliet limestone. The tower gained prominence after The Great Chicago Fire of 1871 as it was the only public building in the burned zone to survive. In the years since the fire, the tower has become a symbol of old Chicago and the city’s recovery from the fire. Sauza Hornitos Tequila, Agave Nectar, Fresh Squeezed Lime Juice ADLER’S AMARETTO In 1930, a senior officer and early stockholder with Sears, Roebuck and Company had learned of a mechanism in Europe that could dramatically replicate the night skies. Max Adler and his wife traveled to Germany to examine this far-fetched instrument. Adler was so intrigued, he became determined to donate a generous portion of his fortune to a public facility that would benefit the future generations of Chicagoans. In 1938, the Adler Planetarium became the first planetarium in the Western Hemisphere. Disaronno, Sweet & Sour, Lemon, Simple Syrup HANDCRAFTED COCKTAILS THE CHICAGOAN LIST 14 OLD CAPONE Chicago was considered a lively place during prohibition, complete with notorious gangsters and speakeasies. The city had hundreds of bars that remained open in the 1920s, with blank storefronts and secret side entrances. A few speakeasies and mob hangouts, like John Barleycorn’s and The Green Mill Cocktail Lounge, are still in business today. It was estimated that Al Capone, Chicago’s most famous gangster, bootlegger and crime boss, raked in $60 million alone on alcohol sales in 1927. Knob Creek, Orange, Pure Maple, Angostura Bitters THE ‘COMMON’ SENSE Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr., aka, Common, is a hip hop recording artist and actor that hails from the Calumet Heights neighborhood on the south side of Chicago. Known for his ‘conscious-style’ of rapping, he creates music with a message that’s experimental and draws from an eclectic mix of genres and styles. He is considered a beacon of light in the world of hip hop. Hendrick’s, Sugar, Lemon Juice, Cranberry Juice THE BLUE LINE The Blue Line, also known as the O’Hare-Congress line is 19.5-Mile long. Chicago ‘L’ line which extends through the loop from O’Hare International Airport at the far northwest end of the city, through downtown via the Milwaukee-Dearborn Subway, and across the West Side to its southwest end at Forest Park. It is the CTA’s second busiest rail line, with an average of 186,796 passengers boarding each weekday. Skyy Citrus, Fresh Lemonade, Blueberry Lavender Syrup, Blueberries WINDY CITY MARTINI Chicago started as a small trading post at the mouth of the Chicago River and the city’s first resident was a trader named Jean Baptiste Point du Sable, a free black man from Haiti, who came in the late 1770s. Chicago incorporated as a city in 1837 and was ideally situated to take advantage of the nation’s westward expansion.

Michigan Ave. (1928; Holabird & Roche/Holabird & Root) The 333 NORTH MICHIGAN BUILDING is one of the city's most outstanding Art Deco-style skyscrapers. It is one of four buildings surrounding the Michigan A venue Bridge that defines one of the city' s-and nation' s-finest urban spaces. The building's base is sheathed in polished granite, in shades of black and purple. Its upper stories, which are set back in dramatic fashion to correspond to the city's 1923 zoning ordinance, are clad in buff-colored limestone and dark terra cotta. The building's prominence is heightened by its unique site. Due to the jog of Michigan Avenue at the bridge, the building is visible the length of North Michigan Avenue, appearing to be located in the center of the street. ABOVE: The 333 North Michigan Building was one of the first skyscrapers to take advantage of the city's 1923 zoning ordinance, which encouraged the construction of buildings with setback towers.

  • Gwendolyn Brooks 1917–2000
    Name _____________________________ Class _________________ Date __________________ The Civil Rights Movement Biography Gwendolyn Brooks 1917–2000 WHY SHE MADE HISTORY Gwendolyn Brooks was an award-winning poet, novelist, and a leader of the Black Arts Movement. She was also the first African American poet to receive a Pulitzer Prize. As you read the biography below, think about the role Gwendolyn Brooks’ writing played in the civil rights movement. Why was her poetry significant? Bettmann/CORBIS © As African Americans worked to bring an end to discrimination, most still lived in poor inner city neighborhoods. The Black Power movement focused on the need for social and economic reforms. A Black Arts Movement also emerged to tell the story of African American life. Poet Gwendolyn Brooks was at the forefront of this movement. Gwendolyn Brooks was born in Topeka, Kansas, in 1917. Two months after her birth, her family moved to Chicago, Illinois, where she would live for the rest of her life. Brooks was a shy child who developed an interest in writing. Her mother encouraged this interest, and teachers helped develop her talent. At an early age, Brooks was published in national magazines and newspapers. After graduation from high school, Brooks entered community college and received an associate’s degree. She worked at many different jobs, from maid to spiritual healer. Later she would write about these experiences. She was also involved in the Youth Council of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and helped found a club for young black artists and writers. Through this club, she met her future husband, poet Henry Blakely.
