I'm a New Orleanian who went to Chicago for the first time last week for the Urban Land Institute Conference. I gotta say, I was blown away, I liked Chicago way more than I thought I would. I liked it much better than New York. It was cleaner, less smothering, much more livable while still being huge. The architecture can't truly be appreciated just in photos. And the Autumn colors were insane.
It was the Fifth of November...
