Chicago
The Chicago Architecture Center interprets the city that gave rise to the skyscraper, with galleries on building design and urban planning overlooking the Chicago River. A scale model reproduces more than four thousand downtown buildings, and the center runs the boat tours for which the city's architecture is best seen. Exhibitions trace structural engineering from the iron frame to the present.
