Incredibly cozy to walk around Riverside. Sit down and have a drink and watch the people and boats. Or why not do like the locals jogging or a walk?

That is called architectural tour covering architecture of the buildings and their history covered by the guide. It is 75 minutes tour in the artificial canal from Michigan lake. All the skyscrapers are along this canal. It starts from the lake and ends in the lake very beautiful and knowledge tour about Chicago and its history. Very pleasant weather and surroundings. It is worth 45 dollars per head.

Are you concerned that the photo is not correct in that it is not taken next to the Chicago River but on a street in the City of Chicago that is not along the Chicago River? If true, you can tell Google Maps that the photo incorrectly depicts the Chicago River and they remove it.
