Travel Info I'm writing an essay about Chicago. Any suggestions? Travel Tips I would write about the prohibition times in Chicago, thats when the mob was big with Al Capone and a lot of crazy things happened during that time. The Carbon and Carbide (the Hard Rock Hotel) building is modeled after a champane bottle with green glass and gold at the time for the foil. It was built in protest. Also the St. Valentines Day Masacre was interesting and worth looking into (also during that time period). Or you could write about the huge fire that took out everything and how people were set up. And how we poluted that water here so badly after the fire that it was concidered beyond toxic only until the last 20 years or so. Before the fire Michigan Avenue was called such because thats where lake Michigan touched, but now Navy Pier and Streeterville is there and you can look into that, its a long story to explain, but interesting. Others Check out Wikipedia. While planning a trip to Chicago I stumbled on it and found lots of info on famous places, history, and lots of stats that may help with your essay. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/chicago... Mrs. O'Leary's cow did not kick over the lantern I would write about the effect Richard Daly had on the city. Could write about the Mob- that could be fun! Our about all the politics.
