Hillary takes you on a virtual crash course in some major Chicago architectural styles you’ll see downtown, spanning from the 1800s to today. What is Postmodernism, and how is it “having fun” with architecture? Did Chicago really invent the skyscraper? What is the Chicago School Style? With beautiful interior photos and a knack for explaining difficult concepts in a meaningful and graspable way, Hillary guides you in understanding the major styles downtown, and ends with a virtual visit to a few of her personal favorite spots from her in-person walking tours. This tour is a great learning experience for all ages!
