A journey through the architecture and urban landscape of Chicago – from industrial zones to Mid-Century suburbs and all points between.
Mentioned previously in this comment, but I felt it was worthy of its own FPP.

Yes, absolutely worth it. I only wish he posted more frequently.

In a similar vein, y'all may also like Ultra Local, whose author researches the history of specific buildings mostly in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago.

I miss Rogers Park. I learned that people day-drink by watching the regulars walk into a bar at 7 a.m. from the Morse el stop.

I think Chicago is one of the, if not the, most beautiful American cities. Sometimes I'm not sure if it's rose-colored glasses because I spent a few of the happiest years of my life there, but this blog seems to tell me otherwise. I miss the hell out of it. Thanks for this!
