Developed in partnership with the Chicago Architecture Center (CAC), join us for a bus tour that follows the Great Chicago Fire’s path of destruction and highlights the resiliency of the city during its recovery. As a CAC docent provides commentary, learn how the site of the fire’s starting point on DeKoven Street became the Chicago Fire Department training facility. Trace the fire’s route to its northern boundaries in Lincoln Park. Along the way, learn about “fireproof” buildings that burned, the few structures that survived, and the everyday residents who rebuilt the city.
$50, $42 CHM and CAC members
Tour runs 2 hours. Meet outside the Chicago History Museum, 1601 N. Clark Street.
CHM is proud to partner with the Chicago Architecture Center and Windy City Limousine.
